Does your friend's tank have a sump? If so then you can use pretty much any skimmer that will fit. There are often good deals on used and DIY skimmers on here.
If no, then your only choice is a hang-on type skimmer. For that size tank I would recommend a PM HOT-1 or a smaller Remora hang-on skimmer. The CPR Backpak is also a good choice. If I recall, someone was selling a Remora recently in the Buy&Sell forum.

Going skimmeless is also a good choice.
