Skimmer size?


I'm looking into starting a 30g oceanic cube, I've been doing my research and now I'm starting to get the pieces together and now its onto the protein skimmer. Here is what I'm looking to stock it with eventually.
-gorgonian
-xenia
-zoanthid
-mushrooms
-ricordea
-montipora
-pocillopora
-brush coral
-plate coral
-feather duster
-hermits, shrimps, snails
-clam
-clown fish and maybe a goby
-around 50lbs of LR and around 3" LS

Hopefully thats enough info. A hanging model is what i'm looking for, also if you have any opinions on brands that are known for being quiet. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

that is a small tank to be keeping both SPS and softies. you will need to use a huge amount of carbon in the sump in order to keep the chemical warefare down enough for the SPS to survive. you might want to not have SPS in that tank, just for your sanity.

Yea, SPS are way down the road, this is just what I'm thinking about overall.
