Both my skimmer pumps are making a terrible noise the last few days.
I want to put my skimmer offline for as long as possible and give the pumps a good vinegar bath.
I clean my pumps on a 4 month base normally but with just short term vinegar baths which leaves most of the tough coraline and sponges on them most of the time.
So how long can I put my tank without a skimmer to soak them as long as possible.
I do have a sump/fuge set up with macro algae in it and about 200Lbs of life rock in there.
would it be smart to even soak the entire skimmer completely?
