Those answers will let us help you a lot more.
+1, we do need more information... Also don't go cheap on a skimmer, I can tell you this by experience. It is important to get a good one, and you do get what you pay for... Personally I would try to budget $400-600 for this. You will have much more selection and will get something that will work.

Not knowing what you have I will recommend the following brands, depending on what you are going to do and what you have, you will then have to select the appropriate model:
- Tunze
- EuroReef
- ASM
- Hydor
