Corallife Super Skimmer or Eshopps

Hey all, I have a 29 gallon with a low bioload but I am not currently running a skimmer and am having cyano problems. I want to add a skimmer and have narrowed it down to an Eshopps HOB or a Corallife Superskimmer HOB. Any comments on which one to go with or is there a third option that is better?

Octopus, many options, head and shoulders above CSS. Eshopps I am less familiar with.

Did I ever tell you about the time Brasky went hunting? Well anyway, Brasky decides he's gonna hunt down all four members of the Banana Splits. He stalks and kills every one of them with a machete. They all beg for their lives, except Fleagul.

My corallife SS came with the tank and it is not quite hefty enough I think. At upgrade time I am really looking at that octopus.

I have a 30 gallon so I am thinking the 75 but for 10 bucks more I have heard it is a good deal to upgrade to the 100. Opinions? They seem well built
