Thanks for the reminder Marc, I think my backpack skimmer will fit nicely in a 5 gal bucket of vinegar this weekend. The office will smell nice come monday morning though. :p

How often do you clean your protien skimmer?
Probably every six months. When I can't stand it anymore. :hissyfit:
Cleaned mine with the acid a couple weeks ago. First time in 3 years. :p Needless to say it's running like new again. The acid does in minutes what takes hours with vinegar. I'll post before and after pics as soon as I figure out how to get them off the camera (forgot to insert the SD card. :hissyfit:)
How much acid to water do you add? I know pool acid can be quite strong.
I used half a gallon to about 12 gallons of water.
