Skimmer Help/Question

I recently just bought 75 gal with a center overflow to replace the 75 drilled that I have. I have a Aquoen Sump mod.2. I plan on hopefully replacing it down the road but not anytime soon. But my question is I am looking for a good skinner for my tank. I really don't have much room in the last chamber for a big in sump skimmer. I have been looking at the Reef Octopus Diablo XS 160.i was just wondering if this is a good skimmer or should I go with something else.
Thanks

Great skimmer for the money! If u plan to stock heavy, this skimmer will handle it.
 
I dont plan on stocking to heavy.
1x Watch Goby
1X Yellow Tang
1X foxface
1X Lawnmower Blennie
3x Clown
3x Chromis
and just the usual cleanup crew and a couple of cleaner shrimp
 
I just got a SWC BMK150 from big als online with a coupon code for $198 shipped. Super small footprint. Plug and play, skimming great in a few days.

My system prolly close to yours as its a 60 cube with 40 breeder sump(25ish g's).

SWC does have a great build, I've owned a SWC 200 since 2008, just had to get a skimmer that didnt use the psk2500(great pump.....WHEN they run right).

Need to know footprint for skimmer section, water height of said section, and stand height inside in case you need to raise the skimmer for optimum water depth for more accurate suggestions.
