How long do you run your protein skimmer?

Only time mine isnt running is when i use epoxy to glue corals to the rock. Makes it go crazy for several hours.

That's why mine was freaking out today!! I was like scratching my head???
First time using epoxy in tank. Lol

24/7

+1, only off for cleaning.



Well, one exception, since my ATO pumps into the a tee inserted between the skimmer venturi and my co2 scrubber, Apex will shut in down if the ATO is on more then 15 minutes. I do this to prevent the water level from rising too high and potentially causing a small overflow. The ATO has never run that long though.



I run the ATO that way so that it cleans the venturi


Wow that's a good idea. I'm going to try that.
