Euroreef or Aquac EV series. They are kinda spendy though. Performance is top notch from both. I have a friend who just picked up a Euroreef a couple months ago and loves it!<BR>I would go with a <A HREF="http://www.marinedepot.com/a_ps_ac.asp?CartId=" TARGET=_blank>Aquac EV180</A> as it gives a lot of room for a future larger tank<p>[ December 09, 2003: Message edited by: freakyreef ]
The beatings will continue until morale improves!75g mixed with 55g sump/fuge. 2-175 W 10k XM 2 Act. 110VHO Predator 1s skimmer.

| Boht Freaky's reccomendations are good, and I love the aqua c products. Another really good one that you dont see much is precision marine, they also make a great calcium reactor.<P>[ December 09, 2003: Message edited by: sdelliott ]<p>[ December 09, 2003: Message edited by: sdelliott ]

| AquaC all the way!!!! No seriously, euroreef is also top notch, so is MTC brand. I have the ev-180 on my 90 and another one on my 155, never had a problem with either although the breakin time is a little bit longer than most, about 3 weeks for me. Great skimmer. It is very powerful skimmer for the 90, but you will be able to expand it to a larger tank if you upgrade.<P>Jimmy

| It is no longer work to maintain. Once your tank becomes established (i.e. all your equipment is in place, happy with aquascaping, corals are happy, fish are happy, feeding regime is in place etc...) then it becomes easier. I have a total of 8 tanks now. It is now a matter of cost. When my lights go on, I can illuminate my whole neighborhood ...... lmao<P>Jimmy

I have an AquaC EV-180 on a 90 gallon reef. <BR>I replaced a berlin turbo and the difference is amazing. It took two weeks to break in but boy when it does hold on to your hat. If you have a low stand be careful and measure the skimmer dimensions versus clearance into the sump, Its kind of boxy. <BR>This is the skimmer I wish I had bought 4 skimmers ago. <BR>  I run it with the Mag7. I love this skimmer, and would buy another in a heartbeat. hope it helps
