HOB Skimmer recommendations.

[JEBrown2]

I have a 5" Undulated Trigger in a 90 gallon who eats like a pig. He is by himself and is pretty much a pet (he may be smarter than my dog). I want to get him a HOB Protein Skimmer that I can eventually move to a 6' tank. I'm not sure if he, by himself, creates a big or small bio load.

I've looked at Eshopps, Octopus and Aquamaxx. What is best suggested for performance and value?

Thank you.

I have tried several HOB skimmers over the years and by far my favorite is the RO BH-90. It's as close to a typical in- sump as you can find. No stupid robber bands to adjust the cup, etc. Mine was set and forget.

That's a new one. Usually I see the BH 1000. Did the 90 come out before or after the 1000? How would it do on a 125 with a single Undulated?

Thanks for the reply.
