Hello,
My tank has finished its cycle. So now is time to by some fish. I was going to by to very small snowflake eels tonight, but I have one problem. This morning I noticed that my pump was broke on my protein skimmer. Will these two eels be ok for a couple of days without the protein skimmer? Thanks in advance.

What size tank do you have?
and as for the skimmer it couldnt suck much out of a newly cycled tank anyway so you will be good for a couple days

a lot of people don't even have a skimmer. I didn't have one for the first year of my tank. So, it obviously will be fine. It's one of those things that are optional, but beneficial.

I would'nt worry about it, they'll be fine without it. Snowflakes are as hardy as can be.
