Unless your planning cleaning the foam out very regularly, I'd just forget about using it all together. (Just my opinion though.)

It will just be a huge nitrate factory with little or no benifit.

A skimmer is not a must, but will make life much easiier in the long run. (Again, just my opinion.)

Good luck and welcome to the forum Mike.
