You should play with it a little... different thing effect you skimmer in different ways... like new sox. I can’t skim at all for an entire day when I put in a new sock... everything effects your skimmer... water changes, socks, dosing.. a single heavy feeding day... I try to heavy skim... clean out my skimmer once a week. Dark. Smelly, crappy looking stuff.

It doesn’t matter what I do, there are the occasional... super light skins...? It fills up in an hour...

just play with the flow... turn it up, turn it down... react to what its doing : )

Soak your new socks in rodi for 24 hours before putting them in. Then the skimmer won't go nuts.
