    I just got a 29 gal Oceanic Bio Cube where I will transplant my 3 ponies (reidi). The issue I am having is that the protein skimmer that I got for it SR3 is producing too many micro-bubbles. The Bio Cube comes with a wet dry system with bio balls. My question is whether or not I skip the skimmer and just use the wet dry system that it came with for the seahorses?

    I would say "yes" A skimmer is always a good thing.IMO
    I came across this video of your tank setup.
