Well, while this is partially true, the goal is to remove the waste from the amount of water you have in a timely fashion. So 10 fish in a 20 gallon and 10 fish in a 200 gallon is not the same thing. You need a skimmer that can process the water you have to remove nutrients quickly, there for a bigger skimmer (porcessing rate) is required for a bigger tank.
