Do I Need A Hang-on-the-back Filter ?

My marine aquarium is a very simple set-up.

I'm only using live rock and coral sand.

Do i need the hangover filter(with Biohome) to filter mechanically or biologically or do not have to use the filter at all ?

Since i already using live rock and coral sand to act as a filtration system, can i forsake the use of a biological filter(hangover filter with biohome) ?

So does that means my hang on filters just need to have chemical and mechnical filtration ?

Cos for the past few days cycling the water i have biohome added for biological filtration.

I have 2 small false clownfish about 2.5cm. But why the two always stick together at one corner don't like to explore ard the tank ?

What effect have on the marine fish if the gravitiy of the saltwater is low and high ?
