NanoCube 6 gallon skimmer?

[sgdcover]

Hi,

Does anyone know if there is a skimmer available for the JBJ nanocube 6 gallon? I've searched all over the internet, but can't find anything.

Thanks

U really don't need a skimmer for such a small tank. IMO water changes should be enough? Fish only or fish and corals.

Corals, with one or two small fish.

Thanks for the suggestion on water changes. I've considered that, but I'm trying to minimize the water changes due to the change in chemistry balance they cause.

Minimize??? You only need to do about a 1.5 gallon WC on a 6g nano once every 1 or two weeks. I would prob go with once a week. Besides where are you gonna fit a skimmer!?... lol Try a DIY 10g sump or a 5.5g sump, this way you ca hide all your stuff. But i think WC would be the best, just keep a gallon of water on the side for when you need to do a WC. It would take you less than 5min...

BTW, one or two fish are perfect. Not too much load for the tank.

I'll try that. Good idea about the sump, but I might leave that for when I upgrade to a larger tank. Thanks!!!
