So as some of you know I picked up a complete Elos 160 with there sump and skimmer. I am not a fan of either so will be ordering a new sump, but before I do that I want to get a new skimmer. So I was wondering if this was your tank what skimmer would you go with and why?
 
Get a skimmer that is atleast 3x rated your tank size. I have a Reef Octopus rated almost 4x my tank size and I only run it from midnight until my lights turn on (night time only), and my nitrates/phosphates remain undetectable, no algae growth in my display tank.
 
If I change the new tank, I am still go with ASM G3 or G4..It's serve me well. It's pull out nasty into the cup every 2-3 days.
 
If I was going to get a new budget conscious skimmer it would be one of the new Aquamaxx cones. If price was no object, Bubble King.

I was leaning towards the Aquamaxx CO-3 but not sure if that one will big too much for the tank
 
I'd just get the Boss Hogg Aquamaxx then. Figure, Biopellets, some kind of amino supplement, heavy feeding, and some kind of fish load. You'll be able to dial it in.
