Ok after some discussion with fellow reefers and review of different reviews, I think I've decided on MSX as my skimmer choice for my 180 gallon.

I had it narrowed down to:

MSX 250 - http://www.marinesolutionsinc.com/ca...gvr4du60tribb3

But I've seen a lot of hype concerning Cone skimmers and now I'm confused once again:

I can see they definitely increase the cost of a skimmer, but is the cost worth the benefits from the cone? Does anyone currently run a cone skimmer? How does it compare to your cylinder skimmer you had before?
