Skimmer Help

Hey I need to get a new skimmer for my 30 gallon tank and the Red Sea Prizm Deluxe looked pretty good. Does anyone have this skimmer, does it work, or is there a better one at similar cost?

go with eshopps hang on skimmer (the 75 gallon version)

Dont let anybody tell you they are cheap skimmers. IMO they are the most undervalued and underappreciated skimmers.
BTW i personally think the prizm is worthless. They dont skim near as much as the eshopps.

not sure about an eshopps skimmer never used one; but do agree on the prizm -- don't do it.
another option would be:
