what is the smallest skimmer?

[peckhead]

what is the smallest(hieght) skimmer with a rating around 150+/- Im looking at th asm g2 or the mrc m1. which is the smallest yet still good enough to handle a 90g with a 30g sump agressive? i dont have alot of room to work with under my stand.
or are there any good hob skimmers?

The ASM G2 woud be undersized for that system IMO.....The MRC on the other hand would easily handle the job, but and you have the choice of either a single or dual beckett.....Give Andy a call!!!!!!

is the m1 good enough? and can the be used in sump or hob?
the g2 is rated for 200g isnt it?

That's what they rate the G2 for, but dependent on your stocking will probably be a bit under powered......ASM overates their capacities.....The best way is to compare the same size skimmer to a EuroReef and go from there......
MRC skimmers are either in sump or external, they aren't HOB
