Default nano skimmers

Hey everyone. Well I have a 20g tank, I now have corals in it and am in need of a decent skimmer but one that is affordable. I saw the rio nano skimmer and it looks pretty cool. I was reading on it and someone says they work great. They are HOB and $39 which is a great price. They are good for up to 20g. Here is some info and a pic. Anyone have any experience with these?


info:Needle Wheel
Simple installation and compact design
Adjustable variable venturi with exclusive air/water mixing chamber
Filter cartridge with activated carbon
Ozone compatible
110 gallons per hour pump included
For saltwater aquariums up to 20 gallons
7.25"L X 4.5"W X 10.25"H

I have no experience with that model...but I do have a 20 high myself. I use a Remora skimmer. I know it's pricey, but it does an awesome job, the company has great customer service and I'll be able to use the skimmer when I win the lottery and buy a larger tank someday........
