    Would it help / hurt any if I ran the air input line for my skimmer outside? It would probably take 6'-7' of rigid tubing and I already have a 2x3 in a nearby window foamed in to run lines for a RO/Di.

    Thoughts?

    I wouldn't bother unless you had specific need or reason to do so. pH problems can stem from an excess of CO2. If your tank is healthy, there's probably no need.
