Skimmer recommendations for 57g DT + 20g sump

[RaymondNoodles]

I am setting up a 57g fiji cube int with 20g fiji cube sump (total ~ 70g); looking for skimmer recommendations and considerations. The tank is going to be a mixed reef with softys, LPS and maybe 6 fish.

The sump's skimmer footprint is 8.1" x 14.2 and accommodates water level from 5" - 12".

I have been looking at:

curve 5 and the s120, on paper, are the more obvious choices. i personally use reef octo 110sss on my 40B with a 20long sump so roughly 50G of water volume and it has worked amazingly even with 6(and at one time 7) fish

What makes you say the curve 5 and s120 look better on paper? Maybe I’m missing something but so far, the only thing that sounds better about the curve 5 than the others is price. The s120 and 110sss both sound great. I really like how the s120 can drain to an external source. Can the 110sss do that?
