Protein skimmer

[timmyrules]

Hey y’all, I’m looking for a budget protein skimmer for a 10 gallon tank that’s slightly over stalked at the moment…I know it’s important that it’s quality, so it’ll last a while. But I don’t want it to be over 100$. So far I’ve found this one:

It seems to look pretty promising…thoughts?

The only thing with this one is it says it isn’t for rimmed tanks…my tank is rimmed.

Oh yeah, and I’m also looking for one that isn’t super ugly, seeing as it will be in my DT…any recommendations on brands?

What is heavily stocked?
What are your nutrient levels at?

10 gallon display you can pretty much manage with a simple water change. Invest that money into an ATO and make your life a bit easier maybe.

as of the moment there are a few to many clownfish…I’ve been wanting a protein skimmer ever since my other one broke…not sure what nutrients levels are, as I’m not currently home to check…not worried about an ATO since I have a tight fitting lid and have very little evaporation. :)
