I am looking for a skimmer for a 75g with a Trigger systems crystal 30" sump. The space in the drain/skimmer section is basically 11"x11". Prefer to save as much space as possible.

Budget: $300 and under. Prefer to stay as close to $200 as possible. As I would like to do an ATO as well.

I have looked at the RO NW110, SCA-302, BM Curve 5, BM NC6. Input on those and anything else yall have thoughts on for different skimmers than I listed.

Thanks

Looks good on paper, I went to Aquamaxx's website and couldnt find it listed there to get the most info on it. Makes me think twice if they dont list it on their site.

Any other recommendations?

I am looking to purchase by weeks end.

Ok so I am narrowing it down some. Inbetween the BM Curve 5, SCA-302, Aquamaxx ConeS co-1, and Cadlights Tia 1150.

I notice some saying about the water level in the skimmer section on the Aquamaxx that it may start to run into the air silencer due to a water height right around 9.5" I run just a tad above that. Any input on it?

Needing more input from users of these skimmers....
