Why in heaven's name would you want to skim a nano.

If I had a nano tank I'd use one of those air driven skimmers by "Lee" I think. They work suprisingly well for what they are. The only down fall is that they are in-tank skimmers, but you could cover it with rock somehow.

I'm with Bob. I don't think a skimmer is necessary in a nano. Especially since you are already feeding carefully and being diligent with your water changes.

Here is a picture of my pico taken last week (I added a few more things since then, but not too much)
