Skimmer

[ady]

Hi Bros...

This is a rather silly question.... I have a 4 foot tank, a protein skimmer, with live rocks + fish (no corals). The thing is , is it advisable to turn off the protein skimmer at night and to turn on again in the morning. I mean, I am using a automatic timer to cut off the power at 12am and power on at 6am. From 6am to midnight, the skimmer will be on. Skimming is good as I can see the "frosty" bubbles with dirt around.

My Protein skimmer is those type in the tank type. I do not have a sump tank.

Bros, pls advise whether this is advisable as I don't want to risk the health of my darling fish....

I am using 02 sets of Eheim 2217 which is running on 24/7.
