    Well, your options are really limited. And the price goes up accordingly. For a 92g, you will want something that will do 200-300g lightly stocked. That will allow the skimmer to do around your capacity heavily stocked. Aqua Medic and Deltec have some good HOB skimmers.

    **Aqua Medic Turbo Flotor 1000 Multi-SL
    **Deltec MCE600

    I tried to google other brands that I know of, but didn't come up with anything worth posting about. Which one of these is better? Probably the Deltec.

    Aqua C Ramora Pro would probably do it if you dont have your tank heavily stocked.
