HOW LONG CAN MY TANK LAST?

[ASWoodsy]

My skimmer stopped working two days ago in my 32.5g reef tank. I’m not going to get into the reason why, but it was my fault that it malfunctioned. I’m trying to get a new skimmer ASAP, but it is difficult to get one on such short notice. My tank is roughly 2.5 months old, and it is currently in the ugly stage. How long can my tank last without a skimmer?

Just order one off Amazon and you'll have it in a few days...it'll be completely fine.

Just do a bigger water change to compensate. You don't have to run a skimmer for a successful reef

it will last forever. a Skimmer NOT REQUIRED for a tank to be successful.

All of the above (I've had my skimmer offline for weeks without any adverse issues).

Forever. Just feed less and/or increase water changes if necessary.
