if you're going to get an asm go ahead and get the 3. I have had experience using the asm, euro reef, and octopus. You won't go wrong with any those without a doubt. The quality acrylic on the asm isn't so hot and u really have to be gentle when u clean it. The collection cups don't always want to come off either. Euro Reef is Beast even when using a adequate size model. I'm running an Octopus now and am more than satisfied. It's all the same principal and it depends on how much room u have to play with(size restrictions) and your budget. As a general rule of thumb...U get what you pay for...including experience.
