Just in general. I see all the skimmer with so many different needle wheel pumps on them. Just trying to find out the best pump and then I will look at what skimmers use them.

it's also depend on the skimmer size.... if you put on big skimmer body a small needle wheel pump the result will not be so good...

the eheim needle wheel is good pump but if you compare to it the Sicce with mesh wheel it will out perform the eheim pump..... first choose the skimmer body you want to use or want to buy and then it will be more easy for ppl to put comment for matching the pump
