Skimmer Question

what would be a good skimmer for a 75 gallon mostly softies, and gonio`s, with a 40gal sump, and a 40 gal refugium? I would like it to be adjustable, and under 300 dollars, is it feasable?

Many skimmers would there that would work. Here's a few:

-Tunze 9010 Doc skimmer
-Euro-reef RS 100
-Euro-reef RS 135
-Octopus DNW-150 Needlewheel Recirculating Skimmer
-ASM G1x
-ASM G2
-ASM G3

octopus nw150 would work well on that tank, and an octo nw200 would work even better.
The tunze 9010 is a great skimmer, but well over $300.
I like ASMs, but octos are just as good and a lot cheaper.

Thank you, What about the aqua medic 1000? I know nothing about skimming I`ve never really used one in ten years.
