Skimmer Advise please

[Bolex]

I`m back with a new build... tank is 90cm x 45cm x 45cm plus sump. Total water volume around 250 liters.
SPS heavy stock and zeovit

Which one of these two skimmers would you use in a tank like this ??
Deltec SC1351

Deltec SC1456

Because of the way the sump was designed these are the only ones I care about so please lets not go skimmer war :-)

Please share you thoughts thanks

Here's my reasoning, for what it's worth. First off I have no first hand knowledge of Deltec....but I do like the use of DC pumps....the future of aquarium pumps. You don't mention your fish bioload, but at 250 liters and 90 cm long, I wouldn't imagine any crap machines (ie Tangs) in that tank. Accordingly, since the 1351 is rated for twice the volume of your tank, I'd go for that one. The 1456 is rated for four times your volume, and that just seems like overkill.

Bigger skimmer its better just in case you decide to go bigger tank later.;) Sorry for my English KJ

yes there will be tangs :)I already have them in a smaller tank and they are doing just fine;)

redfishbluefish I agree with you the 1351 seem the right choice but I already have a BM curve 5 That is rated for 400 liter and I am afraid that it wont change much.
I am so tempted to go with the 1456
