What skimmer to put on a 180
I'm setting up a 180 with a 40 gallon sump. Looking for suggestions on what skimmer to run. I have softies and LPS. I will be running skimmer in sump. Thanks for the help.

Look into a SRO2000 or SRO3000. The bubble blaster pumps are great and super quiet. I also like the Bubble Magus NAC77 as well.

+1. I love my SRO XP3000 cone. Going to be ordering a neck cleaner for it pretty soon to make it that much better. Only way I would ever upgrade is if I go to a bigger tank, or find a couple grand laying around for a bubble king.

I have the warner marine mf201 In my sump (220 gallon system) And it is the best skimmer I have ever had. It also only uses 17 watts so its very energy efficent also. I f you want to see some pics let me know. I cant say enough about how much I like it.
