Filtration: Protein Skimmer and Gravel?

I just got a little Via Aqua tank to replace my Nanocube, and I am
setting it up. It comes with gravel filtration, but I have a Prizm
Skimmer for it. The protein skimmer should be enough I figure, with a
fine sand bed and live rock. The gravel filtration in addition, would
be too much biofiltration and would introduce too much nitrate right?

I have a Via Aqua tank also (10gal) between LR and LS the only filtration I
have is a CPR Bak Pak skimmer and everything is thriving in my tank. I have
2 percula clowns, ricordia, mushrooms, pulsing xenia, star polyps, astrea
snails, and a bunch of blue leg hermits.
The only problems I have #1) not enough room to add more and #2) finding
replacement bulbs for the light fixture, just waiting for commodity axis to
get them out I guess.
