I ran a VS2-24 on my 120g reef when I was first setting it up. It worked great for me on a Mag9.5, but I ended up changing my sump setup and changed skimmer as well. It was great when I didn't have a consistent water level in the sump, performed just as well when the water was high or low. I was very happy with it, virtually no maintenance ever.
I think you'll enjoy yours for sure. That'll be plenty of skimmer for a 55g tank.
