Ok, I am looking for a protein skimmer for my 28 nano and don't know what to get. I have been running my tank for about 3 years without one and I am finally going to add one. I want one that will fit into the back chamber of my cube without modification and doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Any suggestions?

The size of the back chambers seems to me are just too small. The JBJ skimmer that comes with the tank fits, but is so tight you have to do some drimaling or cutting to make it easyer to use. Having to take off the collection cup every time you want to open the top is a terrible design. Hope they fix this problem in the future because I love the look of the closed top system. Good luck. Keep reading others post on this subject too. Oh, and yes I am still using the JBJ skimmer. I think something is better than nothing, LOL.
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
