Default Do we need a protein skimmer

We are just setting up a reef tank (not yet stabilised - installed
less than a week ago) It is a Juwel 240 (with integral filter), 215
litres (est real volume), Fluval 204 external filter (with standard
media). We are new to marine fish keeping and have been reading a lot
about protein skimmers. Some dealers say we need one, some don't. How
do we assess whether one is required or not? If we need one, should we
be installing it now or after the tank is stabilised/populated?
