Hello,

Question for which protein skimmer would be better. I was 100% with the Bubble Magus but told they have pretty poor pumps. This will be for a 150g reef/50g sump. I prefer to get a skimmer rated for around 350-400.

Thx.

Bubble Magus Curve 9 = $399

Reef Octopus = $559
 
I was looking at those models as well for my 180 build but decided to go with an AquaMaxx EcoMaxx EM300 because of the Shark 3.0 (sicce) pump.

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
