MR.FEESH Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 I'm prob. gonna get a p.skimmer for ma 6 gal nanocube at nanocustoms.com. Are there any reasons not to use a skimmer? Link to comment
Maeda Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Other then $ no. That being said, don't buy a junky cheapo skimmer and expect it to do anything. Its better to either buy.. a. a super sweet skimmer (usually $ but not always) b. save the money and do more water changes In your case the tank is so small, water changes are a really good option.

LoBo Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 yea there are bad stuff. it skims out trace elements and calcium, so frequent dosing and testing is always a pain. your also wasting more calcium. Link to comment
supahtim Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 skimming on such a small tank isn't necessary unless you are heavily stocked and/or feed a lot. water changes and dosing become necessary as stated by LoBo. Tim Link to comment
