Go with an AquaC Remora protein skimmer.
I would also use some sort of mechanical/chemical filtration. I would recommend a Whisper 3 filter. Inexpensive, widely available, and the filter bags and media are cheap. I have used one on my tank for years and have never had a problem. In fact, the same unit was on my FW tank for over 15 years!!! If that is not reliable....I don't know what is!
