Nice. One minute is way too long. 15-20 seconds is all it needs and won’t disturb the skimmer as much. If you run it for one minute, you will be removing part of the slime coating. I would get a timer that allows you to set it for seconds and not minutes so you can set the timer for 15 seconds once a day.
