    I think I just made my first mistake. I bought a 75 AGA Megaflow aquarium with the pine stand. It looks really nice, but I think its too short for a good protein skimmer. Can someone please help me find a good quality skimmer that isn't super tall to fit in my stand?

    I have the same Tank and Stand, most skimmers will fit. but just. I would suggest a in-sump Bekket style like the Bullet 1
    Or the Aqua C

    the ASm G1 or G1X is kinda short at 22.5" and it is really affordable as well.
