I dont see why it wouldnt hurt. It will just get more sludge out. Id say go for it. If I had an extra one Id put it on. Just my .02

Brucewrs you'll be fine running 2 separate skimmers on the tank....You might find 1 pulls harder than the other, but that's fine....What you could do is clean them at different times.....Clean 1, 1 day and clean the other the next day on a rotating basis, that way you always have a skimmer pulling!!!!!!JMO
