How big is the tank? Can a Remora fit on it?
I have a used - but still works - one for sale.
I recommend them for tanks less than 20 gallons.

Sorry for the delay in responding..

I don't know what a remora is? I have a 10 gal tank and I am starting to get a little foam on the surface so I am assuming I need a skimmer...

How much for the remora? Is it a hang on?

I know personally after I get threw this whole divorse issue I was planning on getting the Tunze Comline Skimmer 3115 . Due to the small size and from some of the feedback that I have gotten it is a good small skimmer.
