new skimmer?
 

hello i am looking to upgrade my skimmer .but am lost at what to get .i have a 120 gallon tank with about 30 gallon in sump .i have a few easy coral and 11 fish (3 tangs 2 triggers foxface small angle 4chromis)i now use a aqua medic t1000 in sump .i can fit a skimmer that is no more then 25 inch tall .local fish store said a swc 160 would be ok?looking to find a deal for around 500

I have a SWC Extreme 200 on a 120 with a similar amount of water in my sump. I am very happy with it, it has been great for the amount of money I have spent on it. It would be alot less than $ 500 if I remember correctly.

I know little about the SWC skimmers, but people seem to be talking about them lots. The EuroReef has been a staple skimmer for years, with the Vertex being a cheaper (albeit great) knock-off.
