I recommend a Ramors c for a 30 gallon tank. It is not overpriced and is one of the, if not the best rated hang on skimmers. If you have a sump I would go with ASM. What you are going thru is the same thing pretty much everyone goes thru with less expensive skimmers, that is why I put in all my posts regarding skimers to get a good one up front, the end cost is much less than loosing fish then upgrading anyway.
