...without a protein skimmer? 55 gallon tank 70 pounds of live rock biowheel filter for a 100g tank... my livestock will b a pair of clowns 5 chromis and 3 yellow tail damsels. i know i should have a protein skimmer because of the LR breaking down and the filter might not be able to pick up the little pieces. but will i be okay? if i do water changes
 
In the long run it might be cheaper to get a protien skimmer and a fluval fx5 filter than to do water canges ofter. take in consideration maintaining the ph nitrites and nitrates salt content and so on. you will save your self a ton of work by just getting a protien skimmer and a fx5. The fx5 is rated for tanks up to 400 gal but i have 2 on my 150 gal and they are awsome!!!!!. you can never have enough filtration... Good luck!!!!
