Protein Skimmer for my 55 galloon aquarium?

[mrangel]

I have a Tru-Vu 55 galloon aquarium. I have one that the pump goes in the back inside the tank. I am looking for a protein skimmer that will fit inside. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for a good one?
Thanks,
Marguerite

look into a skimer that turns your tank over 4-5 timeas an hour..Aqua-C...has killer skimmers.
let me know if you have any more questions...Chris.

Thank you,

how big is the chamber at the back of your tank? in that application it is going to be hard to get an aqua-c in there, unless you can fit a remora hang on in there some how. need the measurement front to back. there are a number of skimmer designs designed with a small footprint that are meant for in sump, or outside sump setups.

I have a Remora Pro hang on on my 54 gall corner unit and it does a terrific job but only complaint is it is not a real quiet unit and you hear some noise. I had to pull tank out to get 2 1/2" clearence for unit to fit.

Thanks for the advice. I do want to put it in the chamber, because I don't have room to put it on the outside. I'll check out the Remora.
Thanks,
