skimmer

ok i am in a stump right now . Been researching for the last few days on skimmers and power heads for my tank . There is just some new options now since i had my last tank set up .

For a skimmer i am a big fan of reef octopus and a firm be leaver in going bigger . As of right now its a 90gal reef ready tank and i got a 30 gal to make a sump out of . So what is your best option here . i would like to stay around 400 $ .

now power heads what is a good kind and how many should i run . Not really set on brand or price

My plans for the tank as of right now are fowlr . After a wile i would like to be able to add coral to the tank . I only like to buy once and have a product that's going to last a few years at the least .. Thanks for your opinions

somebody was selling a vertex 180 with BB 3000, it was modded and only 250, please look it up on used drygoods selling, also only in chicago so you can save.
