skimmer choice

[NyReefNoob]

ok i currently have a msx 160, and after a recent tank crash i am switching tanks from a total of 60g to around 80g. was not overly impressed with the 160, i dont plan to go larger for years to come. but i have been looking at the msx 200, the octopus extreme 200 { has a little better transition into cup } a used bm 160, always been a er fan and had several of them, tank will be mainly sps, the 200's might be over kill but would rather have a little more then not enough, so what do you think ? or the octo DNWB-150 Needlewheel Recirculating

MSX 200 will be awesome.

Vertex in 180 would be a great choice. if you get a 200 its not going to be a lot different than the 160 you had. a little better but not much different.

The atb 840 would work well, the wm as 150, or the vertec in 180 would be my top three for you.

ty mojo ur the one i was hoping would reply seeing you've owned more skimmers then most stores carry, any real reason the 180 over the octo 200 ? i do like how they have a better transition to the cup then the msx atb and warner are out of $ range
