Every tank has its optimal skimming time. Mine is early evening, then again in the morning right before the lights come on.

Yes, leave your skimmer on 24/7. I actually run 2 skimmers on my tank, that way when Im cleaning one then I still have a skimmer going till it gets back up and really collecting skimmate. I alternate my skimmer cleanings.....Im cleaning a skimmer 4 days out of the week, but I dont have to worry about accumulating proteins.
