Do i really need a prot
I have a 65 gallon tank that currently has only a few clowns and 50 pounds of live rock.
I am considering converting the tank into a reef tank. the tank has two powerhead filters and a magnum 350 canister filter. If i convert the tank to a reef tank i will be upgrading the lighting system to metal halides. I was wondering if if i need/ should get a protein skimmer. |

You do NOT need one, but they certainly help.
This is what I accomplished with no sump and a Prizm (can't really call it a skimmer) |

Some reefers run successful reef tanks without them.
Many also swear by them. I'd say more use them then not. I personally think it is a good investment. You would probably agree if you saw the cups of gunk mine spits out in a weeks time. |
