Dsb with 5" Caribsea sand
 
Lifereef VS3-24 with your choice of DC pump. Not the sexiest option but you’ll never have to worry about a skimmer again!
 
Why does the DSB impact your choice of skimmer ? Not questioning, just wanting to learn.
DSB helps to slim down the tank by reducing pollutants and organic matter

if I were to install a high-performance skimmer I would reduce the useful substance for the aquarium too much

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

    Votes: 7 23.3%
  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

    Votes: 5 16.7%
  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 5 16.7%
  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

    Votes: 10 33.3%
  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 7 23.3%
  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

    Votes: 5 16.7%
  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

    Votes: 2 6.7%
  • I haven’t really considered this before

  • Something else (see my comments in the thread)
