Need help choosing a new protein skimmer

Hey all,
I haven't posted since like 2002 or something under my old screen name.
So here is my issue. I'm have a 120 gallon DT with a 30 gal sump and a 20 gal refug. I need a new protein skimmer and I was looking at Octopus DDNW-250 Needlewheel Recirculating Skimmer w/pumps The features I like about are you can hook it up externally and it is a reticulating skimmer. Does anybody have one of these that could tell me about them? I always have bad luck with skimmers I own 6 or 7 different types
. I want a really good one, but I can't afford something like the bubble king. $600 is about my limit, so if you don't think this Octopus 250 is a good one, could you let me know which ones I should take a look at?
Thanks everybody

Octopus DDNW-250 Needlewheel Recirculating Skimmer is a great skimmer for the price. I doubt anybody here would argue with that. I have an older model Octo on my 130 and I like it,they have made some nice improvements with the new ones.. Order it,you wont be dissapointed.
