Post how much sump space you have. Neither of those would be on the top of my list.

I had a AE Tech Reef Devil Deluxe and it was great on my 60g cube. I set it and never had to fiddle with it again but it does take some work to get dialed in. You need to make a tiny adjustment and thenc ome back 2-3 hours later to make another.

You have the space to fit much better skimmers in the same price range.

I am running the SB 40 and like it allot, had an Urchin years ago and was never really impressed.

The SB40 has been a snap to dial in as long as you have a stable water level, truly is set and forget.
