Default skimmer recommendations for micro reef?

If you don't want to spend a lot of $$ Try the hangon cyclone.. just
make sure you find the demmensions for it and that it will fit on
you're tank. They are economic, and work pretty well for such an
economic skimmer. A lot opf people hate them, but those lots of
people havent had one thy just go by what they hear.

Hi ... I have a 20g microreef in the office, and would
like to ge a protein skimmer for it. I used the Prizm
in the past, and was not happy with it (it started
leaking, not a good thing for a tank in the office!).

The tank has been doing OK for about a year without it,
but there is a coat of darkish algae on the live rock
which is kinda annoying and hard to remove. Also the
coralline algae isn't growing well.

Any recommendations for a protein skimmer? I don't
have a sump so it would have to be a hang-on or small
internal. I've read negative reviews of the new Fisson
nano skimmer. Anyone tried the Tunze nano protein
skimmer? Other recommendations?

thanks,
shireen

I've had a Seaclone and did not find it useful. I have seen that AquaC
now has a nano skimmer available. I saw it on marinedepot.com.
