skimmer turned off for two weeks help!
Hello turned my skimmer off for two weeks why I have dosed my tank with treatment.
Will the water inside the skimmer body have gone stagnant? what should I do? Thanks

How big is the tank and skimmer? I feel such a little bit of water wouldn't do much harm. If you are worried about it, take the skimmer out and dump the water and re-submerge.

Definitely won’t be an issue. Salt is used as a preservative.

Next time just turn off the air & let the water circulate.
