Which is the best protein skimmer for a 32 gallon, specifically for a biocube. I want it to fit in the back chamber. Thanks!

Ice-Cap K1 Nano. I just switched from the Tunze 9001 and it has been a night and day difference. And I don’t have to make sure I remove the collection cup when I turn the return pump off.

That one looks good. I’ll try to find it. And it’ll fit in a bio cube back chamber?

Without the hood? Idk if that will work. I use the hood LED plus 2 LED strips
Besides the coralife biocube skimmer I don't believe there are many options without removing the hood. That was one of the reason I chose to remove the hood.

I used to have a 34gal Biocube; wasted a lot of money trying different skimmers on the back chamber. None of them worked good or at all. I ended up getting a sump with external overflow so I could use real skimmer. Worked perfectly for me.
