Does a 10G Aquarium Need Skimmer? Powerhead?

You could also look for a small GBTA. I have one in my 6 gallon Fluval Edge and my clowns love it.

I also have a frogspawn for the Sexy Shrimps to keep everyone happy.

Anemones need strong light and in a nano that means evaporation so unless you can top off manually twice a day you will need an Auto Top Off solution to go with the big light.

good answers so far. You dont need a skimmer if your doing regular WC. As for the nem I wouldnt recommend one in such a small tank. They get big and a clown may or may not host in one. You also need to have a mature tank and strong light to keep one alive (takes a minimum of 6 months).
If you like the flowieness of a nem then look for another coral that does better in small systems and can be fragged easily to keep it in check. Maybe a torch?

Thanks for all the help everyone.
When I said Anemone I ment I wanted Frog Spawn and All the low light small stuff. I plan to get a Skimmer now and a power head for the tank.
Thanks for all the replies.

OH! well an anemone and Frogspawn and all that low light stuff are completely different things lol. You had us all thrown off hahaha

Sorry hahahah.
I am a big freshwater guy, finally decided to do salt.
Alot of my friends are helping me along the way, but the live stock...
Theres soooo much hahahah. Way more then fresh.

If frog spawn isnt a anemone then what is it...

Green Bubble Tip Anemone

GBTA = Green Bubble Tip Anemone
Frogspawn is a Euphyllia.
Others that fall into the Euphyllia family are:
Hammer and Torch coral.

No worries about the freshwater thing. I too am into freshwater and have been since I was 13... wow thats 14 years ago LMAO.
I just started the saltwater craze but it was with about 2 years of research (on and off of course). Im starting my first salty tank and its been up for a while now but im not considering the cycle started until I get LR (Live Rock) to seed my system.

I am in the same boat. It is confusing but so interesting compared to freshwater. I thought plants would be the end of it but then I saw corals.
