How often should a skimmer be broken down and cleaned? I don't mean the basics of cleaning the cup when you empty it. Do you break it down clean the pump and housing and such?

I have that same problem. I use an aquatronica on the system and it has a place for recording scheduled events I'm trying to use more and more, but I'm still pretty bad about it.I actually keep it scheduled in my phone so I don't forget these things LOL
My biggest problem with cleaning the skimmer is the fact that the body cannot be removed from the sump(poor design I know). So I have to attempt to clean it in place.
I do notice a lot of the little worm skeletons and such inside the skimmer body.
