Smaller tanks need skimmers that can more aggressively scrub the smaller amount of water which may flow through them.

 My thought in having a less efficient skimmer is that with a smaller tank you tend to do more frequent water changes.  If I had an aggressive skimmer then everything (including the good stuff) would be out of the water coloum before I ever had a chance to do my water change.   Maybe I am way off base on this
