I am trying to choose a skimmer for my 120 gal tank. I know that euro reef is supposed to be one of the best skimmers available. The cost (with pump) will be in the $500 range. I not trying to be cheap but I am trying to have enough money to get some MH lights. My question is if I don't go with the euroreef, which is a better choice? ASM G3 with a sedra 5000 pump or an Aqua C EV180 with a mag 7 pump.
Thanks for the opinions :)

Thanks for the comments. The myreefcreations site is not wanting to load for me right now so I will check that one out in the morning. I am also sending an email to the triggersystem folks to get a price quote. I am not set on any skimmer at the moment. Just want to get something that will be easy to use, and good bang for the buck. I do have another question in regards to the pump for the skimmer. How do I know what pump should be used for each skimmer? I am guessing that it has to do with the amount of water that the overflow is sending to the sump. But then again I could be way off base.

I would check with Matt aswell, he makes some pretty good skimmers.

BTW: How would you guys rate the Precision Marine Bullet 2
