I have a 55 gallon tank in which the only filter is live sandbed, and live rock. my circulation is a rio 1100 plus a bak pak 2 skimmer. I have pulled all the media from the bak pak. My question is this, Do I need the prefilter on the skimmer intake? Can I just take it off to improve flow and skim the stuff that usually clogs the prefilter?
