I've read some threads in the General Discussion forums in which some people say a protien skimmer isn't a necesity. I'm setting up a 55 gallon FO tank, and was wondering if I really need a skimmer? Here's what I'm planning as my setup:
- 80 to 100lbs sand substrate
- 60 lbs. base rock
- 2 Maxi-jet 1200 powerheads
- Rena Filstar XP2 canister w/carbon
- 200W heater
I wont be keeping live rock, and I plan to have 3 or 4 fish plus a crab or two.
