Default short skimmer for a 65 gallon tank.
Hey all.
got a short stand, about 24 inches clearance inside, are there any brands/models of skimmers that will fit in there and also do the job for a 65 gallon tank?

The eshopps 75 is a HOB skimmer. The best thing to do is go to Wai's, or Ocean City they are close to you and see what they got. You will need one with a short collection cup in order to get it out to clean.

Oh ya I see that now just looked it up. That would work just fine, the eshopps psk-100 might even work depending on how big the cup is.
