I think i'm going to try the new hurricone CAT 1. It has an Askoll model 1500 on it and I've read some really good things about that model # of askoll pumps. Octopus suppsidly redid the pumps and they have great motors supposidly and people that have used these skimmers said it works good. Its not a full cone but semi cone, and I cant complain its not at the price of a full cone either haha. The size is what im looking for to fit my stand and the price is about right for me at the moment. Hopefully this one willd o good for me. Thanks everyone!

Do you have any info on this? I've never heard of it before.

Well lonestar, I can send you to a thread i started on RC, it is where people told me of it. It is new as of this month i think. Basically you have the octopus pro skimmers, most of them had sub par pumps on them, and the 300 did have the askoll 1500 or whatever with the good motor in it. They modded the parts in the pump and made the body a slight cone and probably did a couple other upgrades, but in the end they seem to have made a much better skimmer, its more expensive but I've hurd some good things about it. I googled it and there was some info on it from before they were shipped out. Thanks for the input man!
