I had the 160 xtreme cone on a 90 gal and it rocked. Very quiet and pulled alot of junk out. Very good skimmer IMO.
so this would be a good choice for my 90 also what other skimmer would work well?

IMO, it'll be a good match. A fellow reefer has this skimmer on a FULLY stocke 90 and he's plesaed with it's performance.

I'd go with the swc too. About the quietest skimmer you can buy, except for a Bubble King which costs 4x as much. They skim very well, I've got the swc 120 and it pulls like crazy and runs very quiet.

The SWC 160 is a great little skimmer. Pulls out a ton of crud and is relatively quiet.

Which 160 do you have? They have two models, the old style and the new cone style. I think the pumps are different also.
