Skimmer

I am setting up a 90gal DT. What is a good skimmer for this tank? Will need to do an in sump skimmer. Do you know any web sites or links that i can visit? Thanks for the help.

Cost

I am not to concerned with cost as I am with reliability and functionality. I am big on doing things as correct as possible.
thanks for all your information.

I never had good luck with the Aqua C Remora skimmers. I use a Euro-Reef skimmer which I have had for over a year. Zero problems and it skims very well with the cup easy to change. I like it.

Regards,

Pat
