Skimmer in QT

How much of a benefit is a skimmer in a QT tank sized 30g? I have a spare Tunze 9010 skimmer rated at 1000l and was wondering whether using that in the QT tank would help?

I run a CPR BP2 on my 26 g QT, it gives me peace of mind if nothing else and certainly helps to aerate the water for the inhabitants. I shut off & pull the carbon when applying treatments.
