Good skimmer for a decent price

Hey guys and girls. My newest tank is in dire need of a skimmer. I Got one for my birthday (it was a large Chinese off brand skimmer) I haven't worried about setting it up yet because my system is pretty new but it is now a past time and I am in desperate need of one. The one I have is simply too large for my set up and won't fit.

The way the hood/canopy is on my tank, I can't hang one in the display so it will need to go in the sump (I'd prefer that anyways)... Also my sump is a bit on the small side. 10 gallons and I have live rock in it. I of course would make room for a skimmer but I need something that will be good for a 55 Gallon system, something sleek that is a good skimmer, doesn't cost a fortune and doesn't need constant tuning to skim properly.

Here's an old pic from when I was cycling the tank.

Any recommendations?
