OK it seems like Ive settled on a 110 that I will pick up in a couple weeks. With that being said I think I may need a bigger skimmer. Right now I have a Tunze 9005 http://www.marinedepot.com/ps_Aquar..._skimmers_tunze_doc_comline_nano_classic.html

Factoring in the sump the tank will probably have a total volume of 140 without rocks, sand etc. I was wondering would this suffice or would I need to upgrade the skimmer. If so what would you recommend? Also does anyone have a good skimmer for sale for a tank this size?
 
From what i have read the tunze 9005 is a little workhorse. Are you getting good skimmate? Since they have a small footprint i was thinking of adding a second skimmer to my 75 when i increase the bioload. I like the 9010 a lot from what i have read.
 
The 9005 keep the water completely spotless.....its crazy, I get probably an ounce of dark skimmate per day at the least....if I skim wet its more like 3-4 ounces...

I feed lite right now but in the new tank with additional coral, and more bioload I think it will keep up, but I want to be sure...I would rather over skim than underskim....
