I am looking to get a simple skimmer that will hang on the back of my tank. I live in Calgary and am on a tight budget. I am willing to go used aslong as it is not broken.

Thanks I advance to anyone that can help

How many gallons is your tank? I have a used Deltec MCE300 skimmer for sale. It works fine. I will sell it for $75.00

That's what I ran it on was my 28 gallon AIO cube. It's rated up to 85 gallons so it would be plenty for your tank.

Does it require plumbing or me to use a sump? I am using a eheim 250 canister filter. Are they compatable

I have a hydro slim skim which is in tank on my 26. It seems to work well enough

No it hangs directly on the tank or sump. No plumbing is required. I had it hung on the back of my tank.

It hangs in the tank but the collection cup sits above the water line
