2 protein skimmers ??

[wxman2]

I have inherited an extra protein skimmer and was wondering if I should hook it up. I have a 48 gallon oceanic FO tank and already have one on the back of it. BUT, this extra one will fit nicely in the sump of the filter below.
IS IT WORTH IT? Do I get any advantage of doing this? Or should I just hang on to it as a spare in case the one that I'm presently using goes out.
SO...the bottom line is ... Are 2 protein skimmers better than 1 in a FO tank? Or would it be a waste of time hooking the 2nd one up?
Thanks for any input.

What kind of skimmers are they? If one is a Euroreef running another would be a waste of time.

I'll have to check. One was around $30, and the other was about $65. I don't know anything about Euroreef, but I'll check.
Thanks for getting back to me.
DOES ANYONE OUT THERE RUN 2 SKIMMERS ?
