So I'm in the market for a different protein skimmer and so far I've been between these options for my 60 gallon cube:

RLSS R6i (not sure if the R5i would be best)
Nyos 120
Deltec 1351

Any other recommendations are welcome. The nyos is fairly new so I don't know a whole lot about it. It seems like the older RLSS pumps had rust issues but it sounds like that has been resolved. I've also heard that the RLSS DB series have been a little on the loud side so that's why I'm opting for the R series.

I'm a fan of going oversized but not so much that I won't get a decent/stable foamhead. End goal is SPS once I get things cleaned up a bit.
 
I like the Nyos, same size tank as yours. Very consistent, quite as far as skimmers go. Have had it for a year .
