Great point! I was just coming back to this thread to point out the same thing as I forgot to mention it in my first post. Shutting downt the skimmer at night would definitely contribute to larger than normal PH drops. Heck, shutting it down anytime of day for a decent length of time would impact PH due to the drop in disolved oxygen.
