Skimmer advice?

Rate this Entry
I would like a skimmer recommendation. I need a new skimmer. I just set up a tank that is 150 to 200 total gallons. It will be a mixed reef and as of now I plan on feeding heavy to help growth. I also do not plan on many fish. I would like a good skimmer but dont want to break the bank. I just dont want junk. thanks.

    I currently like my msx skimmer. It is not the most money in the world and it works better the my Aqua C which was very touchy. Some days it worked great some days not so much. Just my 2 cents...

    I dont personally have one but alot of locals in Seattle have them and like them. I currently have the ATI BM 250 which is nearly identical on my 450G system. Its not quite enough IMO.

    I would get this bad boy so even if you upgrade later your covered and you can stock heavy and feed heavy...
