whats a good skimmer?.. return pump?


OK so I am getting my taxes back in like a week and want to pick up the last things for my tank. So my question for you is what is a good skimmer for what im going to be doing, and what would be a good QUIET return pump.

I have a 75gal tank that is going to house pretty much a little bit of everything. I have matt's old light that he had on his 90. I plan on having a 30 gal sump, or using a 55 and splitting it with some acrylic sheets and make it a refugium also. Im gonna grab some koralias also to set up for flow. ( i love how they look)

So this is where you come in.. what do you think would be the best for my buck. thanks everyone!

Cassie

Well, I've had really good luck with buying used stuff off of Reef Central. I'm not sure what kind of price range you are looking at... But, we have a discussion on going here on the site.

Here is one that we were discussing possible skimmers for Brians tank but there is some smaller scaled skimmers on there as well that are good viable options for a tank of your size Aqua C 120, 150, 180 *either of these would be potential options*

The Euro Reef Line (5-3, 80 and a few others in that range)

Some of these are discussed in this post.
