Ok here's the deal. I have a 55 FOWLR and possibly will be moving my SW to a 78 I am currently using for FW. I would like to get a HOB protein skimmer, and can afford $150ish with shipping right now. I've read a lot of "seaclones are a piece of junk" messages, so I am not looking at them. But I have found a Coralife Super Skimmer 125 for around $145 and an AquaC Remora w/ MJ 1200 for around $164. I've read better things about the AquaC, but it is rated up to a 75 and I've also read that you should get one rated higher than what you have. So of these two which one should I get?
Also, if anyone else has any other suggestions for a good HOB skimmer in the $150 range please let me know.
 
I have a Remora and its great. It performs very well creating a great skim everyday for the past year. Also, my favorite part, it is incredibly quiet after it's break in period. Would defenitley reccomend, mine cost $300 so i dont know if that helps.
