Best HOB Protein Skimmer?

[stanfill reef]

I have a Prizm on my 30 gal and it just isn't getting the job done. What is the best HOB protein skimmer on the market (and is reasonably priced)?

Probably a used Aqua C urchin skimmer....thats if you want good and cheap. New will cost you a little bit of money.

I agree with Ziad, the AquaC Remora is a great skimmer. The Prizm is a good one too. Have you tried giving it a good cleaning and soaking it in Vinegar & water for a couple of hours? That can rejuvinate a skimmers ability!

I'd have to also agree with the others on the AquaC Remora skimmers. I had one on a 29 gallon reef and it did a great job.

Ditto AquaC Remora is a great HOB skimmer. I had the Remora Pro on a 75 gallon and it worked significantly better than all the other ones I tried. I might have got more skimmate outta that sucker than the skimmer i have now thats rated for 225.

TurboFloter Multi is pretty good but it is more hang on sump. Some swear by the Octopus model.
