IMO, if you're going to use a 1x1260 - its very important that you gravity feed it. Its an incredible skimmer and like most recircs (external) - it works best gravity fed. For safety you could go to a 2x1260 (A200 or A250) but you can definitely get away with a 1x1260 on a tank that size if you optimize it. You will love it, thats for sure.
I think the vendor you choose should be closest geographically to you for shipping. I've bought directly from Finsreef and Aquarium Specialty and they're service is top notch.
