How’s it going let me start by saying that I would recommend that you pull them out at the end of the day when you are done and rinse them off . If you are not going to do this at least take them out and clean them before the next use. The reason for taking them out is longer life of the anode
and to keep solution from becoming contaminated

i took mine out simply because i didnt plate on a daily basis, if you plate each day i would not remove them.
