Which is the better skimmer???

Vertex alpha cone 250
Royal exclusive double cone 250
Sro xp 3000 cone
Sro xp 5000 cone

Yes I realise I put 2 Sro up, and a 5000 will outperform a 3000. The reason is tgey are the cheapest 2 options but I am worried a 5000 will be overkill and possibly not perform.

Tank is 1000 litres sps, 100litre frag, 100 litre sump (equipment) 300 litre refugium.

The alpha cone is the most expensive (am in the UK)

Thanks, please share any experiences with the above
 
Is there much difference between the double cone and alpha 250?

Shape, strangely the alpha cone pulls slightly more air.

Over here though the alpha cone is highly regarded but then I know nobody on ultimate reef with a royal exclusive double cone, however the vertex alpha cone appears to be better regarded.

Surprisingly there is around (at a guess) $300 difference in price (royal exclusive cheaper but it's an import from Europe (what can I say, pants down in the UK!!:lmao:)
