I just bought a protein skimmer and I was reading and it said that it may not pick up any organic matter until it is broken in (3-5days). Can someone explain to me why they need a breaking in period? I just don't understand why it just can't start to work.
Also, I have it running in my sump and some super fine bubbles are making it to the tank giving it a cloudy look. When it breaks in do the bubbles generally subside?
thanks,
Chris
