    I've really liked my Hydor Slim Skim Nano. I think the regular Slim Skim would work best for you. The only thing is that it is inside the tank, not HOB. If you have a black background, it's pretty discreet.

    read up on Seano's and i's hydor slim skim! I like it, works easy and if something goes wrong, it doesn't drain 25% of the tank on your floor!

    Check Reefmonkey's review on the eshopps HOB skimmer! He is extremely happy with it.
