I personally do not run a skimmer because I feel by doing water changes every other week keeps levels and waste stable in my 90g mixed reef.

I have a 40 gallon innovative marine and I do like 25% water changes (sometimes more) every week and my corals are happy, I’ve never lost a fish, and my nitrates are always low!I personally do not run a skimmer because I feel by doing water changes every other week keeps levels and waste stable in my 90g mixed reef.

+1Yup, tried without, nope that didn’t work.
Yah skimmer!
i don’t use both, My tank has been setup for 5-6 months and i have had no issues. I have a bunch of different corals and they thrive. I do water changes every other - every other two weeks.Anyone on here who doesn't use a skimmer also not using a fuge? Interested to see how you make it work.
I just do weekly water changes...I have a really simple setup just 2 HOB filters...then again i dont have that much coral either so the production of nutrients and waste is not that high but still highly noticeable...you can pretty much tell right away by looking at a tank if they are running a skimmer and a fuge...I think theres a notable difference.Anyone on here who doesn't use a skimmer also not using a fuge? Interested to see how you make it work.
