I have a HOB skimmer that just broke and I'm sending it back for my money back.

What should I go for? I have a sump with a total water flow of 105-110 gal.

I don't want to break the bank with the best of the best.. just something that will do a good job.

Octo NW-150 or 200 if you plan on upgrading in the future.

I have the MSX 160. Great skimmer - and compact as well. If you are planning to upgrade, the 200 will do nicely as well. If I remember I will post a pic of my skimmate...

I have a EuroReef 8-1 and I really like it. Get something rated for a much larger tank for the best results, something in the 125-200gal range. I would like to get a MSX200(or Octopus Extreme 200--same skimmer) so that's what I would recommend. I have heard great things about them and they have low power consumption. If I could do it over that's what I would have gotten.

ER RS135 or RS 180. good workng skimmers. but if you want to spend a bit more money(meaning A LOT of money) then go with the ATB Small Cone.
