Red sea max - depends where abouts, it has two options for hanging, if you can give more details (pics) I can assist more.

BM150pro is sump installed and $379.

Go for the BMqq then upgrade where needs be

So what skimmer would you advise for red sea max considering that a RSM is sumpless

The RSM isnt sumpless ... just has a sump in the back and not like the traditional sump under the tank setup....

--cut from RSM Club--
The 70mm cylinder (2.76 inches) should fit the back but if you go look at the images, I think the additional space needed by their mounting bracket would make it a no-go in the back of a 130 or 130D. Looks like it would sit up pretty high also - no closed hood or at least no skimmer flap.
--end cut--

Hope that helps ..

The BM-qq is definatly a interesting skimmer.

It is ingenious that they have the air intake tube through skimmercup, to work like an auto-shutoff when the cup is full, as well as a drain. No air no bubbles, no more skimmate.

Only flaws I see so far are the footprint it takes up in a tank, and the narrowness of the clamps for the glass. It won't install without modification with tanks with a trim on them (hagen/marineland/etc), which are the standard you would use this skimmers on.
