Any suggestions on the most efficient protein skimmer for a 90 gallon?

There are a wide range of opinion on skimmers - personally I am a big fan of #reefoctopus skimmers. I currently am running a Reef Octopus 110INT, a Reef Octopus Essence 130, and a Reef Octopus 150 classic on systems that are comparable to yours and am thrilled with the performance of all of them. Good luck with whatever you decide!
Reef Octopus has a space saver line that is marked with either an “s” or an “sss” where the pump is inside the skimmer cavity.
@Jeff@CoralVue may be able to help with the dimensions.
The one I’m looking at is marked with an SS. The pump is inside the cavity. I have seen people recommending skimmers where the pump is outside of the body. What are your thoughts on this? What pros are there to having the pump on the outside vs inside?
