Should I turn my skimmer back on ?

[cheyco]

I treated my tank with copper and am now ready to remove the copper back out. This was the first time I ever had an outbreak. Anyway. I left the skimmer off during treatment and am now going to add "CupriSorb" Do I start the skimmer back up? Thanks.

Sorry to hear that you put copper in your display tank. That is always a bad idea.
If by "outbreak" you mean ich, you could have safely done hyposalinity.
Yes, turn the skimmer back on, and, if at all possible, start running a carbon filter. Do water changes every week for the next 3 mos.
