Im new at the saltwater tank thing.. My sump is being constructed out of a 20 gallon long tank.. What kind of protien skimmer do I need?
 
I did a 20g tall with my 72g when I had it. The footprint is smaller and could fit in the 72g stand. The 20g long prolly won't fit, so I hope you're not using the 72g stand.
 
Welcome aboard. For a twenty gallon tank I would not have a skimmer. PWC`s will accomplish the same thing.
 
Yeah.. Ive already placed it in the stand to make sure it will fit and it does! But Im just lost in looking for a good protien skimmer that will fit... I dont know what brand or size to look for!
 
Partial water change. You'll still need a skimmer. I think melosu just thought your tank was a 20g (which wouldn't need a skimmer). Also you'll still need to do pwcs lol. I'm not good with skimmers so hopefully someone else can recommend one (although I hear the reef octopus brand is good).
 
I think the name is seaclone 100 or 150. I had the 100 on a 92 reef in the sump and only ran it daytime due to noise (aquarium was in bedroom). Anyway it did a fine job. Good luck and welcome to AA.
