skimmer for 29G tank

[jcegt87]

hey guys so i been thinking about a skimmer for my tank, i know technically i dont need one but it doesnt hurt to have one right? anywho ive only ever own one previously and it was the Aqua C remora pro ... what would be a good , economical skimmer for a 29?


this is what i been looking at , ive heard nothing but good news on it, does anyone have any experience with it? or can suggest another one?

Aquarium Protein Skimmer: Hydor Slim Skim Protein Skimmer

I have the Slim Skim, pretty good, pulls some great nasty smelling skim, love it, unless you spill it over your nice white shirt (yes i did) had to throw it out it was nasty.
But the only problem i almost ran into was it not fitting in, make sure you have enough height wise, it was extremely tight on my 32.
other than that, decent skimmer for the money and no issues either, real easy to clean, take apart and assemble, not louud enough that i can hear it when i sleep.

I've heard good things about the hydor one too, the tunze 9002 is another great option with a very small footprint.
