I have to agree with you about the very finicky part... and I don't get this with the recirculating skimmers that I'm using. I'm still wondering if the threadwheel that makes it finicky or something...

Agree!

NB - Ed is located in San Francisco and usually has all models in stock, probably only BM200s and BM250s in stock right now as the BM160 hasn't been released yet.

ATi Bubblemaster 200 would be a good fit. A little overkill for now, but perfect match for your future plans. It just on the upper end of your budget.

But if you're...

I will need to check, it was a customer trade-in for my local dealer. Has a ball valve mod and he mentioned that he could add a layer of mesh to the needlewheel impeller too. PM me for more details.

My aquarium tech rates the BM250 for up to 400g heavy, 500g-700g normal. You don't need the BM300, in my opinion. The BM250 would be a perfect match. I'm sure that your electric bill will love the...
