proclear skimmer?

[pleasants9]

I have a 55 with a bioload on the heavier side. I want to start looking into skimmer and was wondering what a good economical one is for a 55. preferably a HOB since i have a wet/dry i dont think i could fit anything in the little sump area besides the return pump. I have been looking at a red sea prizm skimmer and someone locally offered me a proclear aquatics skimmer 150. Any opinions?

Look in to a recirculating skimmer they can sit out side the sump, the only thing that goes in the sump is a small pump(MJ400).

red sea prizm is better then the proclear. Proclear aquarium systems make much better sumps then they do skimmers.
Keep looking, and see just how much room you have in your sump. If you can fit in a small pump, you could probably go with a coralife super skimmer.

looks like i might be able to get a prizm pro for 70 bux and its basically brand new...doesnt sound like a bad deal?
