Default Looking for a short skimmer
I think I just made my first mistake. I bought a 75 AGA Megaflow aquarium with the pine stand. It looks really nice, but I think its too short for a good protein skimmer. Can someone please help me find a good quality skimmer that isn't super tall to fit in my stand?

Or the Aqua C
