Default Time for a Protein Skimmer

Hello all,
I've introduced damsels into the tank with some astrea snails and blue leg hermits. I'm about ready to get a protein skimmer and am probably going to get one on EBay.

There's some low priced Jebo brand (I'm going with hang-on for now for my 75g tank)

What are your thoughts/experience with these protein skimmers? After shipping I can get the 150 with a 650GPH power head for about $50.

Thanks as always for everyones help!

Mattie

I've never used the Jebo Brand, I have used the Coralife CSS skimmers with very good results.

Not sure either I have a sea clone 150 and paid around 100 bucks for it. I like the way it works.
