help me pick a skimmer for my aquapod

I was just given my dad's old aquapod. I'm looking to get a skimmer that actually WORKS one way or another... If theres a hang on back that works and will fit this thing some how that would be awesome... if not I guess I'll somehow have to mod it for a sump... was debating on doing this anyways...
any input is appreciated guys
thanks

Well, I would think you would need to do some modding on that aquapod to be able to put a skimmer on it, but maybe a remora or coralife 65 would would IF you modded it. But ive never tried so wait for someone else to reply.

ezcompany had a deltec mce300 on his aquapod (i'm assuming you have an open top) and his tank was awesome.

I have a corallife super skimmer 65g on my AP24... and I LOVE it! Pulls out a full cup of green/brown gunk every 5-7 days. Works wonders. And no modding is needed. Well I take that back, I'm not using the bubble reducer sponge that came with the skimmer. Instead, I bought a filter sock and wrapped the skimmers return in the sock. No bubbles. And works like a charm.
