Well looks like I've got the green light from the better half to upgrade the tank to a 90 gallon I found on craigs list. I was going to use an aquac remora pro on the 46 gallon bowfront i currently have. will the same skimmer work as well on the 90 gallon? I see most people recommend to get a skimmer that could handle twice the amount of water your tank can hold, and I see they are rated to around 120 gallons. Just wondering if it will be enough skimmer for the tank.
 
I dont see why it wouldnt be enough.Although the more you can skim the better your water quality is going to be.
 
It's a good skimmer. I used it for the first 6 months or so on my 240 until I was able to upgrade. Test it out, and if you see your water getting dirtier than you want, you'll know it's not able to do the job.
 
That Remora Pro should be fine on your 90, unless you have a very large bioload. I used one on my 125 until I upgraded to my MSX160 and had no problem at all with it.
