The first one would have a big ol pump hanging in your tank unless i'm looking at it wrong...I wouldn't wanna look at that.. just my opinion there. To me it seems all skimmers are the same (some have bigger tubes) but what you're really paying for is the pump. Those are unknowns on those but hey when in doubt...read the reviews :)
