FO tanks do not require a skimmer, in most cases, but it won't hurt.
A normal Hang-on-Tank powerfilter would be fine for this, but nitrate
levels will need to be monitored carefully, as marine fish are more
sensetive. Make sure you read that first link....that's where I got
most of the knowledge I now have.
