ASM G1 or RO 150 NW I also heard that Euroreef has dropped their prices Not sure but its worth a Look.

Premium Aquatics has a Euro-reef CS80 skimmer on sale with free shipping for $198.00.

you should go with ASM. i never have to adjust my ASM G3... for your tank you could get a ASM miniG skimmer. but i would go ahead and buy a sedra pump to replace the stocker. the miniG is the only G series skimmer that doesnt come with a sedra pump.

so u think it would work pretty good.. without havin to mess with it

I have a 29 gallon SPS with 3 fish and have tried over a half dozen different skimmers. Of all the ones that I tried (bakpak, remora, coralife SS, deltec MCE600, ASM g2 and Deltec AP600), only the last two were truly set it and forget it.

Since you want under or around 200, the deltec is out (and massively overkill) so I'd suggest the ASM as well. I'd go for an ASM G1 or G2. I've heard some not too enthusiastic things about the mini-G.

That being said, if you go for the ASM, do pick up the gate valve mod. That thing is what makes it truly set and forget.

The RO MW series is also something to look at, but I have no experience with them.
