Steve. Do you guys have any nano skimmers which would fit, or any you could get in?
I am also curious on your guys advice regarding our new R/O system. When we started the aquarium we didn't have it yet so we used tap water and prime. Now thy we have I'm wondering wether I should do a ccomplete water change? Or perhaps just 50% water change weekly for awhile. As our tank as stabilized on the ammonia/ nitrite/ nitrate front. Our water is a bit hard so we have quite high calcium in the water with the addition of our salt we use.
Thanks again
Ryan.

Hey Ryan, so the beauty about alot of equipment is some don't need to be directly in the tank so a hang on back skimmer is Ideal when there's no sump or room they just mount on the backside or side , draw water it's skimmed then returned to the tank and they are as safe as any hob filter or any other type of reactor. Now the skimmer you choose is up to yourself based on price and availability , asthetics..... Some are great and some suck so go to the search bar here and search for skimmer advice there's plenty of good articles and reading them will also educate you on the ones you wouldn't want.
