Today is day 6 of my cycle. I am doing a fish less cycle with bottled bacteria and dosing Dr Tim’s ammonia. I know they say not to run your skimmer for 48hr after adding bacteria and starting cycle. Should I be running the skimmer now? Wait until the tank is cycled? I’m not sure what it would skim out to be honest I just want to see it in action lol
Cycling and skimming?

In no way will skimming affect any aspect of your cycle time completion compared to unskimmed tanks. It's boosted oxygenation to a group of hungry aerobes is beneficial
Some colonies are skimmed and then two million colonies are not
and they grab onto rocks and do what they do
