I'm of the same thoughts
But if you're still concerned about it, it was mentioned to run your skimmer intake outside
I've mine plumbed through a window and added a filter on the outside to keep bugs from plugging it up (happened this summer and it overflowed )
You can see my filter here 2nd pic
It's just a breather filter for a carbureted V8

Not so sure that sucking in -30 air into my skimmer would work so good. Not to mention my sump is in a room in my basement with no windows and I am reluctant to start punching holes in the concrete for the skimmer. Unplugging the pH probe for the winter may be the way to go.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

ooooooo! me too. I'm trying to select for the varieties that latch on to tube worm shells and fill up with bubbles making them float. They look just like little red weather balloons.

I'll call it "surprise party"

Ooo, I like that! I'm going to call mine, "RED OCTOBER" so that people don't confuse it with "Surprise Party".
