i use an Aqua C Remora and it works wonderfully, but with a 20 you dont need anything huge.
A Prizm, seaclone, or via Aqua Multi skimmer should do the trick and their usually a little cheaper.

stay away from the seaclone. there are much better skimmers for less money. Even the JEBO HOB skimmers are MUCH better than a seaclone.

Actually, I have a Seaclone 100 on my 38 gallon quarantine tank, and the little bugger works very well. I've talk to others who had to fiddle constantly with the critter to keep it producing foam. Mine works well - but I will not use it for larger tanks.

I have both a HOT AquaC and a Prism. The prism gives off bubbles in the tank. Plus it is more maintenance. I would go w/ the AquaC anyday!

The Seaclones are HO. Don't take my comments as an endorsement of Seaclones - I'm just passing on my experience with them. For a 20-30 gallon, I think they are fine. I'm glad to see folks use ANY skimmer - a lot of people can't see how important they are. That's why I use skimmers on ALL salt tanks, even my quarantine tanks.
