Choosing a Skimmer

Quintino · 12/31/2009, 11:28 AM

Hello there. I want to buy a new saltwater aquarium, and I need some help choosing a skimmer. The tank dimension are 1400x600x600 mm ou 55x24x24 inches with 500 liters.
Initially I thought to buy Deltec APF600, but I think this one is to short for this size, and someone recommended me the ATB - Small Cone 2nd Line, but it's to expensive. So I made a list of possible solutions for this expensive skimmer, but I don't know if those skimmers are recommender for my tank. So please help me to find the best solution.
- ATB 2nd line nano
- Deltec AP851
- H&S skimmer A 150-F2001
- ATI Bubble Master 250
- Deltec TC 2060

i recently purchased the MSX/SWC mini cone for $300 with free shipping on ebay. Normally sells for over $500 so you may want to look at that skimmer as well.
Just checked ebay and i dont see anymore for that price. http://myworld.ebay.com/premiumaq/ is the ebay store i got it from maybe they will list more in the future at that price.
