That's what I'm doing. I get a little anxious when I think it's settling down and try and put the cup back once in a while only to have it overflow in less than a minute. I'm about 2 days into the diatom phase so I'm pretty sure nothing bad will happen from going skimmerless right now. I'm just beside myself that it won't subside after a week. Part of me wants to do a very large water change, but I've never believed that methodology helps the cycle. I'm going to just have to wait and let nature take its' course. I hate when that happens.
