What skimmer is made for the EVO 13.5

[ForTheLoveOfCoral21]

I cant seem to pin it down, is it the Fluval sea Mini skimmer?

Looking for one to go in the SECOND chamber, if possible?

A skimmer in that little tank is a bit pointless to unless your gonna have a bunch of fish.

But yes according to fluvals website that is the correct one. The PS2

The only thing stock on my Fluval 13.5 is the tank and pump.

Same, i have the AI prime, i actually upgraded the pump to a sicce pump.

I only have a pair of clowns, so maybe ill hold off.

The stock pump works fine as long as you add a WM.

Its in my wife’s office but i take care of it. So i guess its mine. :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

1 possum wrasse
1 skunk shrimp
1 RFA
1 pistol shrimp
And supposedly there is a yellow watchman gony in there but hes been mia since adding him 3 weeks ago.

Using a skimmer is not necessary for this reef, the volume is so small, the scheduled water change will take care of it; look into Chemipure Nano instead

i was in the no-skimmer camp for nano's too but changed my mind after adding one.
I got a pair of clowns in a 15G and the skimmer pulls a ton of gunk out of the tank, definetely recommended. It will keep your po4/no3 way lower.

That is exactly why I recommended the use of Chemipure Nano, just that and water changes equal to the evap water replaced that time will keep optimal levels (In a Fluval EVO I was doing a water change every time 5 gallons evaporated).

Thanks Everyone! I think i will start doing 5 gallon water changes weekly and add the Chemi pure

Hi - I'm late to the party here - I'm downgrading my 75gallon reef tank to an old evo 13.5 gallon I have. So it will be full of coral - and a pair of clowns and a goby.
I have heard thr skimmer from fluval mini isn't great - what other skimmers could I get that would fit in that other compartment?
Or would the chemipure be enough for even that tank full of coral?
Thank you!
