Very Nice Tank !!

I myself have a very heavy bio-load in my 90gallon bowfront

So I use (2) Euro-Reef RS-80's (I won them both in the raffle at macna)

Euro-Reef or Deltech is your best bet IMO ...

There a lot of good skimmers out there.................
Bubble king, GEO, MRC with duel beckets, deltech pick one.....

do you need a HOT (hang on tank) or an sump style?

for HOT it seems that Deltec has been the best out hter. some like the coralife ones and lots of greta things about them but they look to small and too cheap to me.

as for in sump i'd say go w/
Deltec, EuroReef, H&S, or Bubble king

i'm not sure about the BEST thing, but i know my Life Reef kicks butt! it skims the crap out of my 75g. and at a good price.

I got a aquamedic turbo flaoter from someone. are they any good?

 

[TNTREEF]

i use a G3 on a 78 gal with 11 fish avg 3 in each. i empty a half a cup every 4-5 days. it's cheaper than the others and works just as well imo.

All the above skimmers work very well, IME.

If I have a tank like this, I am not going to change anything for a while.

no good

no good

i have the red sea berlin in sump or hang on it's about a year old and does not work good at all. i empty cup once every two weeks and it's not even halve full. i feel that if i have a better skimmer it will improve things over all.

rbastos, if you can handle putting something like a mag 12 on the Berlin it will really impress you. I ran many this way in the past, usually pulled more than my Deltec.

You will not be dissappointed with a Deltec.

I have G3 on my 125g.. very good skimmer

 

[SPStoner]

H&S, hands down.
