    To Skim or not to Skim

    My tank was skimmerless the first 4 years, then I added a skimmer, removed it a 1 and a half later because tank went to crap, the tank is just now 3 months later with no skimmer getting back to looking good. All tanks run differently and everyone just needs to learn what your tank needs.

    Updated pictures of my tank
