What is a good skimmer i could use on my 10 gal that will not cost me an arm and a leg? Something that works good but not really expensive? Any idea will be greatly apprieciated....
 
I use a swmall countercurrent on my 15H works good (Lee's I believe). The one red sea makes looks pretty solid too.
 
RedSea Prizm skimmers are fickle and can require constant adjustment to pull anything useful out of the water - I had one on my nano and wasn't happy with its performance at all (had to play with the settings all the time and got inconsistant watery skimmate), but it's doing a good job on my 65g and I never have to adjust the setting. I have an AquaC Remora on the 30g and love it - they're more pricey, but worth it IMHO. I also hear good things about the Coralife Super Skimmer, but haven't tried it myself.
