HOB Skimmer for 75 Gallon tank
I'm looking for HOB skimmer for 75 Gallon sps dominate tank with two tangs. Any recommendations? Currently I'm using Remora with MJ1200 on my 20gallon and will be moving my sps to 75 gallon. Specs on Remora says it can be use in 50-75 gallon tank.

Under $500 would be ideal, looking at Tunze 9010, MCE600...etc?

Get the MCE600, go to the deltec forums. I guy just posted one for sale for 375, I would have bought it to run 2 mce's on my 100gal but since Im going to a 37 I'm not buying it anymore.

Here's another option. I'm testing out a bermuda rogue right now, its pulling over 25scfh air, which is about 1.5x's the mce600. It will most likely be the best hot unit out there. Its 250bux but you have to put the right size pump on it so another 50-100bux. Still a couple hundred less than the mce600.

I also recommend MCE600. IMO, best performance and quality HOB skimmer on the market.

cant go wrong with the mce600, we agree with s3aL's comments.

No modification needed with MCE00, dry foam or wet foam?

i agree with the mce600, just bought one , had been looking at the rouge, the rouge is still unproven, the mce600 does more in a day on my 72gal than my remora pro w/mag 3 did in a week!!!
Just keep in mind, like all skimmers, they all have their own personality an diffrent tanks, mine is a little noiser than i would like it to be, but it is still very quiet, quieter than my remora... |

just to clarify what i said above, all the posts i had read said they were silent, mine makes a slight hum resonance, not silent, but not too noisy...

I would go with the Bermuda rogue wave myself.
