Do I really need a skimmer in my lido 120????
Do I really need a skimmer in my lido 120????
There are plenty of tanks big and small that can run very successfully without a skimmer but they use what is called an algae turf scrubber . I run a 40b with just a scrubber and have undetectable no3 and po4 with monthly water changes. I have even ran my 180 heavily fed tank with just a scrubber for a few months just to experiment and didn't have a rise in anything . Skimmers are great and help a lot I won't argue that but there are other ways to do things.
