recirculating skimmer

I'm thinking about getting a recirc skimmers for my tanks (125 fish and softy and 75 sps) and am looking for input on types of skimmers to look at. I want an outside the sump skimmer and something less than about $500. Thanks in advance.

I would look into the DAS EX3 or if you have to stay under $500 DAS EX 2

I run a recirculating octopus nw-150 on my 90.
Running it externally opens up a lot of working space in the sump. I love it.
