    Hey Guys. I got a 150G tank and I am planning on setting it up in the spring. (If I can wait that long) I am planning on a 40G sump, so I am looking for a new skimmer. The current one on my 55G will not work at all. So with Black friday deals starting I figured I could get a good deal. Here are the 2 I am looking at...

    Skimz SK181
    SKIMZ SK 181 KONE E SERIES - IN-SUMP PROTEIN SKIMMER [PS-SK-SK181-AC] - $399.94 : Reefers Direct


    ASM G2
    ASM G-2 Protein Skimmer - AquaCave.com


    Which would you choose?

    Thanks,

    check out SCAquariums, they have a cone skimmer that I bought last year and really like. They have a good sale going on now and you can find them on ebay for a good deal too.
