    I've always felt that a skimmer is something you can overkill upon. The extra skimming ability of the device isn't going to downgrade your system. If you overkill on lights, you'll kill your inhabitants with radiation. If you overkill with powerheads, you'll be wiping water off the walls and floor. If you overkill on a skimmer, your water will be too clean.

    No brainer. Buy the best you can afford, or better yet, wait, save more money, and then buy that. :)
