Yeah, don't go cheap on a skimmer for a tank that size. Look around the "for sale" forums here or any other reef website. I am sure you can find something good for what you are looking to spend.

Probably an ASM if you can swing it.

I see how you stated that you wanted to stay under $200, but try the G3 at http://www.asmskimmer.com/
They are priced for around $300+ at most online stores but the ASM website has it posted for around $245.00. I would just try to save up a little more and get the G3.

You should contact Ace (hobogato). I think he has a skimmer that he just made that works good on a needle wheel pump and probably in your budget. He's the man on these things and NO shipping!
