How about the AquaC Remora Pro?

I have an Urchin Pro on my 60G and it works great.

If you can afford it I would go with the 220, I am going to adding a 300g capacity on a 90gallon

I have no sump.

I would like to stay under the $200 mark.

Right now i have a CPR BakPak on the 55 gallon. I think it is only rated up to 60 gallons or so. I could use that for the time being, i also plan on running a power filter as well.

Thanks
