Hi

I have a 260 L column tank and am looking at a new skimmer as the one i have (counter current clip on) is a bit un aesthetic due to having to hang into the tank rather than set back near the pumps etc.

Any suggestions?

You could try one of these http://www.reefoctopus.co.uk/shop/pr...6ef691d36e2f4d and hide it in a cupboard next to the tank. You just need a small pump to pump the water from your tank to it. I used to have on of these and it worked quite well
