    Ecosystem..doesn't need skimmer..how?

    I think the cheapest way is to build one yourself and I don't think there are much different than regular sand versus the mud. But I am just stating my experience. I am not saying it is better than others. but my fishes are healthy and I would recommend a skimmer if there is fish in the tank.

    Anemones Spitted

    thanks for the info. today they shrink to a very small size. but i think it should be fine. and i will probably keep them as my 2 clowns like to switch sleeping between them. since the only coral i have are 3 clams and xenia, which is spreading too.
