My New Toy

Hey All, I just bought a 14 gal bio-cube tank, Now I have had bigger saltwater tanks before, so I know the works...mostly..lol

Anyhow I have never had a nano reef tank, which is what I am starting now..I have it all setup but have one question.

Should I put a protein skimmer in it..



heres the tank

And heres the skimmer made for it, but is it worth adding it?

Well it all depends on what you plan on doing with the tank. If it is going to have a big bio load on it then you should definitely get a skimmer. If not its not worth the hassle. Heres my tank I run with out a skimmer http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=160964

As said above, it all depends on what you want to do with the tank. If its going to be a nice little reef, then yes, i would recomend adding a skimmer to it..

Mines going to be similar to that, just with a bit more polyps, and a few more fish...


Im thinking about 15-20lbs of live rock
A few colony polyps, maybe a button polyp,a clove polyp, few mushrooms, a leather coral, and deffinatly a star polyp or two.

Fish wise,.Im thinking a couple small gobies, maybe a chromis, a banggai cardinal, couple small blennies, a small clown, and a few shrimp and snails.


Think I need it lol...
