Advice needed on skimmer

I have an ECO Aqualizer, after reading many, many threads, I realize that a skimmer is also needed. Have a 55gal. tank FOWLR. What kind can I get that is good, for the least amount of money? Thanks, Debra

Look at a coralife CSS skimmer. They hang on the back and great for beginners!

Have been using a Bak Pak 2 for a good number of years on my 30 gallon.
