I have one of these brand new and in the box still in plastic ... but i have been hearing on here that it will be much to big for my 29gal and i dont think i have room for it any ways .... i hear its a great skimmer just a little big ... im looking to trade or sell it for an equally good skimmer or your best offer ... thanks

you can never have a skimmer that's too big! You want something rated for at least twice the size of your tank. I have a 150g tank and a skimmer rated for a 300g tank. Now it would be rediculous if you had a 29g tank with a 300g skimmer but 65 is not bad. Should work fine.
