I had a seacone on mice... Sorry had to cut it a little to fit though..

you will have to cut for a good skimmer, but for 20 gal i would skip the hood dont worry about a skimmer ant just get a good power filter- this also allows you to have better lighting. just keep up on water changes

I ran a 29 eclpise for awhile. I used a seaclone but did have to cut a little of the hood.
