I agree that a skimmer is not needed on a nano or any reef tank for that matter. I just look at it as cheap insurance in case something goes wrong that you are not aware of right away. I have studied weather or not a skimmer removes trace elements or plankton for a long time. Yes it does remove...

In the past I've used regular wood stain and sealed it with water based poly and had good results.

I'm going to use one on my 15gal. in a sump when I get it up and running. It will house nothing but sps and a pair of Helfrich's dartfish in about 6 months or so. The skimmer will give me a little insurance on the water quality.

Oh yeah, there are several ski slopes in the area. We sometimes get snows into April. I think it's going to stay warm from now on this year though. I'm really glad, it was a cold winter here.

Mine's not working either!

Altough I don't have my 15gl. setup yet, on my other tanks with MH the lights are about 8"or so from the water surface. You with have to experment to get a height that works for you.
