Protein Skimmers & Powerheads?

Hi,

I have a 75-gallon setup in the beginning stages (running since November). Currently I only have live rock, hermit crabs/snails and one clownfish in it. I have two Marineland Penguin Biowheel 350 power filters, and am starting to look into protein skimmers and adding powerheads. I know sumps seem to be highly recommended, but I am working with the power filters for now because of some space constraints.

First, does anyone recommend a good brand for a hang on back protein skimmer? All of the choices are overwhelming...preferably I would like something that does not take up a ton of space since I have the two filters.

Also, how do I know how many powerheads and what sizes I should add?

Thank you!
