So i upgraded to a larger sump and plumbed in a frag tank so I'm looking for a new skimmer so far i have two in mind. The Skimz sm 121 and the swc 120 cone. My total water volume is around 85 gallons and my tank is sps dominate. What would you choose between these two? Also open to any other skimmer you think is better then these two. Thanks
 
I have the SWC 120 cone on my 30 gal/15gal sump frag tank and its pulling thick, black gunk out of the water. As someone who has used several different ATB skimmers on my main system, Im pretty amazed by this little SWC.
 
Asm skimmers are awesome,Also been hearing great things about the bubble magus line
 
The Skimz has the better air intake, making it the better choice.
