Can anyone suggest a good protein skimmer to buy that is relatively cheap for a 40 gallon tank. I've seen some on amazon that are rated for my size tank for like $40 bucks but I don't know if I should trust them.

Return water through anything you can put pad or floss in to stop very small bubbles from getting into main water supply.I return my PS into a piece of PVC that has sponges in it and is 1/2" below water level,this way no bubbles enter my water column.Even "properly " run skimmers can pass bubbles that you don't want in your tank.Anything could work.
Ask madness how he "modified" his impeller to get better bubbles in his PS,very informative and helpful.
