You may get different opinions on this....IMO...Protein skimmers are good to have...So I would say yes to one

I saw a post you had written regarding your skimmer/and or fuge. Did you ever get an Aqua C Remora or the CPR Aquatics HUB Fuge?

Reading about skimmer bubble issues brings me to another question. Are bubbles in your tank bad? Because my filter creates a good amount of bubbles where the water flows out and into the tank....

LOL...I have read that they are bad....Micro bubbles are supposed to be worse though...In all reality your filter SHOULD NOT be spewing out bubbles...you probably need to figure out where the air is coming from...

It's not spewing out bubbles, the stream is full flowing out of the filter. It's just when the filtered water hits the tank water it creates bubbles..

In my 225 I was topping off 2-3G's per day...I now have an auto top off system....if that is a concern you need to look into one....
IDK if the bubbles are bad...seems like they are just from the force of hitting the water....if you can raise your water level it MAY help....not sure though
