    Love my eShopps PF-300 overflow. Perfect size for your tank.

    eShopps stuff is great. Affordable, simple, reliable.

    They also have a pf-Nano that might suit you better. You can still get pretty good flow out of one.

    would the nano be good for a 20gall tall?

    Nano would be good for that size IMHO. It's rated for 200GPH - so you will be good for up to like a 20 or so gallon sump. If you have a 20 gal DT and 20 gallon sump - this would be a great option for you if you are limited to space. If you are not limited to space and might expand in the future - a PF300 would also be great as suggested. All Eshopps products (especially overflows!) are well made IMO.

    both the 29gall and 20gall will have a 10gall sump. im not going to do a skimmer just weekly water changes. the sump will have a fuge in it.

    Then you would be good with either option!
