Got tired of the filter socks needing changed out. Letting the skimmer do most of the work now. So far its doing ok.

This is usually the case. Stop fussing with it and things get better. Corals don't like to constantly be moved the longer a Coral is in one place that's it's fairly happy with the better it will do.
