I have a 110 Recir

Hey there,
I would get the recirculating model if you can afford the extra $$ it basically runs the water through the skimmer a bit more before it runs back to the tank, this feature removes a little more debris I am running a 110 recirc on my 60 gallon with a 29 gallon sump.
Hope this helps ;-)
