I'm new to reefing but have been wanting to do this for quite some time. Unfortunately my apartment complex will only allow me to have a 10 gallon tank. I purchased a standard size 10 gallon glass tank with plastic rim from petsmart and have a standard glass top lid that has about 2inches of clearance in the back. It is on an appropriately sized stand. I have 6lbs of live rock and 6lbs of carib sea life rock plus 10lbs of live sand. I realize that counts as my bio filter but I am currently running an AC 30 in it. I have a power head in the mail coming.
I want to add a skimmer. I realize I might be able to get away without one but would like to try it regardless.
My issue is clearance in the back with my glass lid. I initially purchased a Hydor Slim Nano as it was highly recommended but it was too thick for the lid to work. I am not interested in a hood.
Can someone please recommend a good skimmer that will fit in my tank? Ideally will be silent and under $150 dollars and won't look awful as I have no place to hide it. I have no sump and I am not interested in starting one.
Thanks!
Aaron
