Help with skimmer upgrade

[Bmasculine]

I’m getting ready to change my sump design and will be using an internal skimmer, tank is 20x20x30 approx. 60 gal. The skimmers I’m looking at now are the bubble magus nac 3.5, aquamaxx fc-80, icecap k2-50, and the skimz sn127. I like that the skimz is DC, the bubble magus looks solid, I don’t know anything about the icecap and the aquamaxx may be a bit of overkill. Just looking for others thoughts on these as I’ll be reconfiguring some time in next week. Thanks in advance for any help

Also if it helps the sump I’ll be going to is trigger sapphire cube 20. So scrapping my home made 10 gallon sump that currently has a cpr bak pak skimmer hanging on the side of it.

I have the 3.5 and it's been great for 4 years straight, however I'd go up to a curve 5 or 7 for that tank.

I looked at the 5 but thought it might be too much?

I run the 3.5 on a 40 breeder and 15 gallon sump and it's a perfect fit, I'd think the 5 would be the way to go for sure.

Lol yeah I like those but I just so happend to win the sump from BRS so it was totally free, best deal I’ve found in this hobby!

I still have a lot of equipment from my 180 but the skimmer is way overkill and the sump too.

Has anyone used the skimz controllable skimmer?
