Go with a coralife super skimmer. The 220 model will work fine and you'll get good results. For the price, they are one of the best hang on skimmers that i have owned.

I have the coralife superskimmer 220 on my 75 and it works great. I have it setup in my sump but it can be mounted as a hang on also. works great with no problems. Picked it up from another reffer for $85 Bucks. Couldn't beat it.....

I like my octo, I have used a cpr and typhoon hob and both do not compare to the octo.

My css 125 was a piece of junk. It never got any good foam, so it was replaced with an octopus. Mine was in sump but I have read stories of the css having a tendency to overflow.

Aqua C Remora gets my vote, Not only has it been amazing, When I had questions, I got help right away, they are excellent.

I think I'd get at least the Remora Pro for that size tank, if I wanted to go with Aqua C.
