    i just got 100 worth of online gift cards so i already bought that american dj powerstrip $27 free shipping so i said why not. So, next, i was going to but the aquatic life mini protein skimmer 115 but its 3 inches think and the back of my tank is only 2.80 inches (i know theres no such thing but im just rounding and estimating) so it doesnt fit. What do you think i should buy next? i was thinking an auto top off? or moon lights? what do you think? if i need more, i have 100 more.

    I have that skimmer and it did not fit into the back part of my tank...so I just stuck it in the tank part. Takes up more room but IMO it is the best nano skimmer you can get

    Well, if you don't already have a skimmer, get a skimmer. But if you have a skimmer, I would go with an ATO. It will save you lots of time and worry.

    I am so so so happy I have ATO now... life is so much easier.

    but, IMO, a skimmer is more important to the health of the tank.
