skimmer not necessary in such a small tank. your water changes should suffice

So what's everyone's opinion with a protein skimmer in a nano? Does it allow for longer time between water changes? Any noticeable difference?

Which way do you turn the water and air valve to increase and decrease the air and water level. Very frustrating.

Great video! I want a small skimmer for my 8g nano! But I just feel like this skimmer is just a little too big for my tank, hopefully I can find a smaller skimmer that'll get the job done!

Johnny Keo try the Coralife mini skimmer. It's at $23 in Amazon.

Dennis Younger

Yeah, but it is too big for a 10 gallon. Looks like a science experiment. Your tank is pretty but this thing spoils it. Just my opinion.
Dennis Younger
Dennis Younger - 8 years ago
So many things offered for sale to the aquarist but so many not worth it or just not good for some applications. I figure hobbiests spend million on not needed items. My salt water has no skimmer and does just fine.

I agree. I have already pulled it

Nice video. With the skimmer in, will you be making some sort of new cover (lid) for the tank, because I see the old glass lid will not fit properly with the newly added skimmer? As your setup is now I would expect a lot more evaporation of water with the lid not being able to fit properly.
