If it is a brand-name Biocube, then yes it does. If it is some other brand, I would check as I am not too familiar.

as above…..but you really do not need a skimmer for a nano. Skimmers will take out trace elements needed for corals and you would need to dose the tank to replace them. Problem with that is you would likely overdose causing a crash in hours. Most salts contain trace elements I would do 10% water changes every week to week and a half and forget that protein skimmer. It causes more harm than good on a nano. I guess if you want to reduce your water changes run it less often.
