Hello,
I have a bran new bubble magnus curve 5, and a red sea reefer 170, the tank is 1 week old(cultured rock from quality LFS) the tank is cycled. I added a clown fish.
So I decided I might aswell turn my skimmer on, but for some reason I will over flow no matter what water height and setting I put it on, I know there is a break in period for skimmers, so my questions are
Should I even be running the skimmer right now?
If yes should I just let the over flow/foam drain in to my filter sock until it's "broke in"
Lastly how long does it generally take to break in a skimmer
Note I havnt dosed anything, I added very little microbac7 during the first 2 days, and my filter sock is 1week old now not brand new(cleaned it out once)
