I am looking for options for a compact skimmer for a heavily stocked aquarium with tight cabinet space for height. aquarium is a frag tank and I wanted easy access to work with frags. I am building a sump out of a deep blue 30 gallon breeder. 36 x 18 x 12.
I have a few ideas but I am looking for options any options that members here would pick.

So what is a Best Compact Skimmer 120 Gallons and why?
Thanks
 
bubble magus curve 7 is pretty good... i use a curve 5 for my 120 but the 7 can be more appropriate.. it works great and its silent.
 
That is one that I have been looking at. it seems like it is great price for the size of tank it can handle.
 
Yeah its pretty good unfortunately its the only product i can vouge for... i do hear amazing reviews from the ncos skimmers though.
 
I am not entirely sure on height, but you cannot go wrong with Reef Octopus skimmers. I believe an NWB100 would work for a 120, although if you have a heavy bioload, you might want a 150...
