My tank has been running for a little under 2 months with no skimmer due to it pooping out and literally everything is perfectly fine. My NPS gorgonian is out and full and all the fish are happy healthy and eating well. I only plan on adding two blood shrimp, a yellow tang, and a sand sifting goby (I'm thinking gold head sleeper goby) and MAYBE another urchin. My idea is since my bio load really isn't and wouldn't be very excessive and I do 15% water changes and vacuum the rocks and substrate once a week and all my water parameters are good, If I remove the broken skimmer and fill that whole chamber with chaeto and put a few other macro algae plants in the DT would I be okay? I think I'd be alright as I've seen a quite a few full reef tanks not run a skimmer and I'm nowhere near that. I have a MAX250 btw. What's your thoughts? Anybody run without a skimmer in here?
