Trying to decide on a skimmer for my new setup. I have a DAS EX-1 on my current tank, which is excellent, but my new tank is a 60 cube with a 15g sump and possibly a 10g refugium (haven't decided, it would need an external stand to house it). The cube has very little space under it, so I'm trying to optimize my sump space as much as I can. I've narrowed by choices down to the SWC BMK 150 which can be had for $210 shipped, or the SWC 160 cone which I can get at big als with the st pats coupon for about $250 shipped. I'd of course love to save some $$, but if the cone is worth the extra, I'll spend it. Opinions?
