Skimmer for 93 cube?! Help 5-600$ budget
So like the title says im in the process of upgrading from my 29 gallon cube to a 93 gallon rimless cube. My two MP40 quiet drives along with my radion Pro arrived the other day, I have a brand new precision marine R-30 sump/refugium, now I just need some suggestions for a skimmer. I almost pulled the trigger on a 6 month old bubble King double cone 150 but on the bubble King website they only suggest it for tanks up to 90 and I want to have something that will EASILY skim a heavy stocked 93. So I've been really liking the reviews and everything about Vertex Omegas, maybe an Aquamaxx, ATB makes good skimmers from what I'm reading but at the higher end of my budget.... Please anyone feel free to steer me in a good direction.

Oh And my stand only allows me 24" height to fit a skimmer Really sucks :/ Eliminates the omega pretty much, I'm thinking of going with the bubble King double cone 150

Life Reef make a solid skimmer, low maintenance and trouble free.
MTC makes a Life Reef style skimmer that looks very good http://www.marinetechnical.com/page19.html Just because a skimmer is newer doesn't mean its better. One thing I really like about the venturi skimmers is you can use any pump that meets the flow demands |
