|  Recommendations for skimmer on 80gal I have an 80gal im in the process of setting up. Doing it slowly..ish.  Its a none overflow setup. Using a canister filter, mp40es and koralias for water filtration and flow. I need a skimmer for it as I dont want to use my big bulky CSS. Will a Prizm Deluxe do? They say "up to 100gals" but Im not sure if I believe that for the size of it... What do you guys recommend? I am on a budget Thanks  |

|   If you are going the HOB route, I'd recommend a Bubble Magus NAC5E skimmer  They are pretty much the closest thing to an in-sump style skimmer you can get but with the features that make them useable for display tanks without sumps. The skimmer boasts a 5" diamater body, needlewheel driven pump and will pull in 450L of air per hour. Not bad for a skimmer under the $200 mark

|   I have this setup temporary on my 90 gallon QT http://coralvue.com/bh-90-hang-on-skimmer/ Works great, you only have 2 pipes in the tank, vs having the pump in the tank |
