I have a 29 bio cube. What skimmer do you recommend? I do not want to have to do any mods.

ASM protein skimmer, I actually put 2 to skim my tank...
(upgrading and I keep the old one, guess extra protection never fail!)

I would do water changes instead of running a skimmer. Most skimmers made for tanks that small (and HOB) are not efficient and won't be cost effective, the money would probably be better spent doing water changes.

I have a 40 gallon and love my CPR bakpak skimmer. lots of people don't like their efficiency, but i truly do notice a difference in my water quality. They are only about 110 bucks and are worth it in my opinion. I get about a cup's worth of skimmate every 2-3 days, some people think it should be more like every day, but my corals love it.
