I used to have a Coralife super skimmer 125 that worked well. They retailed for around 180 busk. You can get a Coralife SS 65 I think but I'm not sure how much they are.

I would suggest the Aqua C remora. I used it on my 33 reef, not much space used, fairly plug and play and moderatly quiet. I also used it on my 75g reef before I upgraded skimmers - it handeled the larger tank fairly well. And it costs a little bit less then the others suggested.

I like my coralife 65 , It pulls out a ton of more gunk than my remora did and doesnt require me to constantly redial it. I just clean the cup every week and pour out some nasty skimmate.

My vote goes with the Remora. The Deltec is WAY too expensive for what you need, and the Remora has, by and large, gotten pretty good reviews. It's way less likely to overflow than the CSS 65 as well (I'm speaking from experience here...!). That being said, if you want to go with the CSS 65, it will work. I have one on my tank right now, and it's pulling dark, wet skimmate fairly consistently. But you have to watch the water level. If it fluctuates constantly, you'll see it overflow.

i second (or third) the remora. ive got the pro setup and it's pretty fool proof vs the css i used to have.

I fourth the Remora. I have a Remora HOT skimmer on a 33 gallon and it works awesome. I also have a Deltec 600 on another tank. Its a better skimmer, but is really finicky. As many times as the Deltec has overflowed,( which causes me no grief as it is in a sump) I can not imagine using it as a HOT skimmer.
