I'm wondering what kind of skimmer i should get just getting back into this had my tank for about 5 months after a 9 year brake from the hobby so all the equipment has changed, have done some research on it but would rather hear from some people was thinking vertex,reef octopus or bubble magnus but up to any suggestion really. I want to be able to feed alot fish and corals, it will be mainly sps with some lps aswell .Also gonna run a Algea Turf scrubber instead of a regufium i think. Is my equipment gonna be enough for a 48x24x24 tank. Also any suggestions on a doser was thinking a jebeo D4 cause the price but would like to hear some input on that aswell.

Thanks alot
i use these for cal and alk and the 50 ml/min one for top off controlled by an apex they work really good http://www.jlaquatics.com/shlobster-...1-1ml-min.html

i used an aqua medic doser for years it worked great but then broke and the $10 part i couldnt source except from Europe and it was like 30 pounds plus shipping so i wasnt going to drop $100 plus on it since it was old.
I then went cheap and bought a marine magic doser- complete junk had it for a few months and then went to the link above. havent had them too long but they work great and for whatever reason I trust the apex timer a lot more of the marine magic one and jabeo Id put in the same category. for something that could nuke your tank I felt the extra cost was worth it.
