    i have been running my biocube 29 for a year without a skimmer. i was planning on getting a skimmer. will the skimmer made by oceanic fit in the first chamber with my heater in there. heater is a ebo 200-300 watt (not sure which) or do i even need a skimmer. i dont want to move the heater i like the look of not having to look at it in the tank.


    29 gallon bc, 30lbs of lr, corals: star polyps, leather,mushrooms,kenya tree (i think) zoos, and button polyps. fish 2 perc clowns, large bengai, blue damsel, 2 cleaner shrimp, blue star, and snails and crabs.

    I have my biocube skimmer in the first chamber and the heater in the third chamber and everything works fine. Not the worlds greatest skimmer, but from what I have read about as good as any of the other small "nano" skimmers out there. I have tossed out the cartridge in there and use a piece of filter floss that I cut that I use in my other sump, some hydro carbon, phoslo. I place all that in the second chamber.
