I have a 135 gallon reef tank (or at least I want it to be a reef tank) and I believe that I need to upgrade my skimmer before I start adding more things to the tank. Right now I just have a couple clown fish and not much more so I don't have much of a bio load right now. Currently I'm running a an Aqua C EV-180 and it does ok but I know I can do better.
I have an opportunity to purchase a used PM Redline 225 for $175 or I could get the super reef octopus (rated 180gal) for 400 plus shipping. I'm leaning towards getting the PM because I would save $225 and the fact that the PM225 will be plenty big enough for my system.
I would be curious to hear what others think and if $175 for that skimmer is a good price.
