I'd suggest reading the thread titled
MUST READ: skimmer showdown !!!
CPR Bak-Pak vs AquaC Remora comparison.
Pretty good info and good member discussion on HOB skimmers.

Yes I agree, the Remora PRO Version is the one you want,depending on your tank size because the pump that comes with it is pretty big!!
You can see how it perfroms here...

why not look into the berlin turbo hang on? i have the sump model, and can only say good things about it! much much much MUCH better then a bak pak or ramora!!!!!!!!!!!!

The absloute best is the lifereef hang one. But it's to big for a hangon so maybe it isn't the best but it wil out perform any hangon. ig you need a skimmer that size I would rather make a sump. For pratical hangons I would look into the remora pro. IMO the berlin hang on fits the same catorgory as the lifereef= to big for a hang on and to big of a pump. Should go with a sump= big ugly skimmer hanging on your tank. The lifereef is 10x the skimmer as the berlin also.
