Which skimmer for a 75?

[zacharytrimble]

I'm thinking about upgrading from my use of coralife super skimmer 65 (which is an awesome skimmer for price yet a little small for my tank) and prizm skimmer (which is totally inadequate...uh, for any tank but a nano in my opinion).....to a better skimmer...what would you use on a 75?

I like the h&S

What's the H&S?

There are so many different types of skimmers and brands out there. Maybe a Tunze for your size tank.

H&S can be found at www.finsreef.com . There are other good brands out there, such as EuroReef, Deltec (pricey), Bubbleking (ridiculously pricey, IMHO), Reef Octopus (good deal). All of them seem to work very well. With the expensive ones, you are probably paying for a small margin of extra efficacy. It is up to you to decide if the extra cash is worth the extra little efficacy.

EuroReef.

Well worth it...

EuroReeef Recirculating Skimmer.. Works awesome on my 75g reef.

Well worth the $$$

Octopus work great too! I think that they are a euro-reef style though. www.octopus.com you can get a nw200 for about 220.00 they are rated upto 200 gallons I do believe.

What do you want to spend on a skimmer? This will help give a better idea on which skimmer would work best.

Yeah, I didn't link to the skimmer itself. You can find them under the "protein skimmers" bar on the upper left hand side. This site sells several brands of protein skimmers, including H&S and Bubbleking.
