I recently swapped tanks , both 55 gallon , and had a few setbacks when it came to leaks in my pvc plumbing installation anyhow, I had set up some temporary tanks, a 10 gallon to hold the fish and some polyps and then a 39 gallon to hold the LR. It took me 1 week to fix the leak issues, and by then the sand was putrid... so I cleaned it off as best as I could ,but I am going through a big ammonia spike and essentially going throuhg the whole cycle..
so to my question, the tank with the LR and other polyps doesn't have a skimmer and things are starting to look quite sad in there.. the water seems fine in terms of ammonia/nitrite/nitrates and there is a powerhead in there.. do I need to worry about a skimmer in there? I figured with no fish it shouldn't be a big problem. you guys concur?
