Which Tunze Model Skimmer would work well on a Fowlr with 50 gallon total volume and light to medium bioload? Thanks

Will you have a sump or not?

9002 would barely cut it, with a phosphate reactor and carbon, it will work though. 9011 is the best choice since a 9006 with sump kit will be about the same price and you might as well get the stonger pump and bigger cup.

Or for a little more $ go with the 9410?

Yes, it is definitely overkill but for SPS it makes sense. There is some trade off though, 9011 is virtually silent, 9410 does make some noise.
