Default Skimmer For 30 Gallon Tank

Is it wise to put a protein skimmer on a 30 gallon saltwater tank that will be fish only with live sand & rock? Will a cheap one be good enough if needed?
I have a Whisper EX 30 filter & a Maxi-Jet 400 power head now.

Yes it would be wise to put on a protein skimmer, and you really don't need the Whisper.

I have a PSK-75H on my 37 gallon and it works like a charm.
