Judging by your choice of skimmer I would say your over stocked. I would upgrade the skimmer but otherwise it looks okay.

I've got about the same level of stock minus the tangs in 65 gal with a 20 sump and CL125 and it's great, but you will be on the upper side of stocking, especially as they grow.

the skimmer is rated for a 220gal, no good? what would be a good choice without spending a mortage payment on one?

220 is for a mild stocked tank. Yours is depending on if you have corals (judging by the angels not much) you are on the heavier side.

A lot of people recommend Vertex Skimmers for a good-bang-for-buck.

I have a vertex IN-180 and love it. Its what I would reccomend.

The Coralife is rated for 220 but its not designed very well. I would say it would be better suited on a 55-75 tank but even then there are better skimners out there for the same money.

I have to agree with the guys above and I'll add that a lot of the lower end skimmers are over-rated.
You would definately do better with a higher-end skimmer rated above your tank size. You don't have to spend thousands.
A good skimmer new for you would be $350-450 for say a Vertex or a Skimz. Even an SWC.
Just buy bigger than rated for most and you will be fine.
And stay away from the Coralife stuff with a tank your size.

You could look at a BM NAC7 skimmer. They are getting good reviews lately.
