Innovative Marine Nano 16 (skimmer thoughts)

So I bought my setup about 4 months ago. When I purchased the tank they were out of stock on the IM skimmate. After 3.5 months it FINALLY came in, but my water has looked good and I have had zero issues. I'm debating whether or not to keep it as it would take away from the streamlined look.

Question is simple, would you throw it up or take it back? Is it really worth it for a Nano 16?

Thanks all for any info or thoughts you may have,
Blind

I myself have my eye on the same tank you have as my first SW tank. If it was my tank, these are the upgrades I'd be getting:Of course it does come with extra add-ons I would do.

Skimmer - I'm upgrading to this:

I'll be getting spin stream nozzles as well:

Upgrade on the lighting would be this:

Have fun with your new tank.

I want the 24 version. But have heard of tanks cracking at seams. And baffles coming UN done. No bueno but I always will have a skimmer as piece of mind. None the less.
