Skimmer that would work on an Eclipse?

Does anyone know of any type of skimmer that I could mount on-the-back-of or next-to my Eclipse 12?  The catch is, that I don't want to put all kinds of holes in my stock canopy.  Would I be able to run a skimmer from just hoses or something?  I'm looking to make my tank as maintenence-free as possible.

on the net i saw a guy using a back-pak on an eclipse 6 so im guessing it would also work on a 12. i don't know if he modded the hood at all though.

could you fit a berlin air in there?  it wouldn't look good but it'll work.  a prizm is the next thought but you'd have to cut up the hood a little.

 

one time i'd thought of using a rio 800HP and pumping out of my old nano (eclipse six) up into another container (2.5-gal for instance).  this secondary tank could have a real skimmer hung on and also be a refugium.  the issue was plumbing it back into the nano via gravity feed.  i needed to drill the side and no one could drill a 2.5-gal because the glass was too thin.

 

just a thought.
