Protein skimmer?

[jason604]

Try to go for something rated for about 2x or so more volume than your tank. U will need it if u wanna have a full blown healthy reef in the future. Don't listen to stores. See if u can find a high end used skimmer on here km sure u will get a killer deal.

Agree! I see tons of really good protien skimmers sell on here for cheap

The Vertex Omega 150 won't even be close to big enough and the Cad Lights 1350 is a bit small too. The Aqua Maxx I'm not familiar with, but it appears on print to be able to handle the job. The Bubble Magus I think would be a good choice - I know several people running them who quite like them, and from what I've seen they are performing well. They seem to be reliable too.

I think i am leaning towards the curve 9 . Everything i read is that it is a good bang for the buck . As for used i live in a small town and miss all the good deals.

Go for the curve. Myself and alot of local people really like the BM skimmers

Thanks for the help putting my mind to ease about my decision to go with the Curve 9.
