Looking to hopefully take advantage of the upcoming Black Friday sales for my upcoming new build and entrance back into hobby after a little more than 2 year hiatus. Tank will be 200-250g., and will be sps dominant with heavy bioload. Any suggestions on skimmers and return pumps?

I've heard good things about Nyos skimmers, also reef octopus. Do you already know where the tank is coming from? What about reef savy or das?
 
Tank will be manufactured by Crystal Dynamics, local builder in San Diego. I did check out NYOS skimmers at MACNA a few weeks ago. Nice looking skimmer and very quiet.
 
Tunze DOC Skimmer 9415 for skimming and a Tunze Silence Pro for basement return.

DIAMOND AMP MASTER PUMPS has a 4750 or 6250 that should be a good fit if you want external. Bulletproof and very quiet for a direct drive external. A Blueline or Iwaki (or similar) that is magnetic drive might be quieter.
