    I have a pretty small refugium. The spot where my hang on skimmer hangs is only 7.5in. long and sadly there is no other place to put the skimmer. The skimmer i currently have is a sea clone and i would really like to upgrade because it is a 55gallon and i would like better skimming. height is not really a problem because i have more than two ft. from refugium to the ground, but the width is only 7.5in and i am wondering if anyone knows of good skimmers that fit into those parameters for a good price. Or would an out of tank dry skimmer work better? Im just looking for one under $200 that would be a good option. can anyone help me out. Thanks

    I really like this one, I think it fits the bill; Marineland Marine Series Advanced Protein Skimmer - 100 Gallon
