I have a curve 5 on my 55 hex with a 29 gal sump and a nac9 on my 90 with a 45 gal sump. Always best to go at least +1
 
I've been running a curve 7 on a 120 with 40 sump for 5 months. Works great and pulls some nasty skimmate, I would buy again!
 
I was running a curve 5 on my 40 with 40 sump. It was super quiet and pulled out some nasty stuff. The last 6 Months I used it I drained the skimmate back into the system. About once a month I would clean the collection cup and there would be 1/2" of mud gunk stuck to the side of the cup. I quit using it and quit pulling skim out because my system doesn't need a skimmer.
