Don't know what kind of skimmer you have, but mine (Vertex) looks pretty bad, just after a week...

I have a csc450 and not that nothing ever builds up but my skimmer is well oversized and nutrients are undetectable so I don't see the benefit to cleaning it? Skimmer really only pulls out so much doc

Mine is the older In-280. Since I combined my tanks into one sump (230g system), it is probably a little overworked. But it sure pulls out a lot of gunk every week, despite my pre-filtering with the sponge. So I think it is doing a pretty good job. My nutrients are kept very low as well, zero for nitrates and near zero for phosphates.
