SPS Addict
I originally had my mind set on the Vertex in-250 for my 180gallon upgrade but now that I have the tank; I have found they have been discontinued and it seems hard to find one for sale. With that being said, I need your recommendations based on what you have used (key word; used. please don't make a recommendation based on a skimmer you "Want")
Tank specifics. 180g with 125lbs of Live rock & 75gallon sump; so I may have a total water volume of 230ish since the 75g sump won't be full.
The tank will be heavily stocked with shoaling fish and 4 or 5 smaller species of tangs and an SPS dominate tank.
Budget: Im trying to stay around the $300 range but can spend up to 500. Would love the higher end skimmers but thats not in the budget right now.
Lastly and most important; this tank will be in the livingroom so something not extremely loud is preferred but performance is key.
