I've been saving up for a while, and now all I'm left with is to buy the skimmer and live rock, in that order. I have a question though, I'm going for the ATI bubblemaster as my skimmer of choice, these things seem pretty amazing. I don't know whether to go with the 200 or 250 though. My tank will be a 75 main display for cuttles, 60 "secondary" display for either a reef or an octopus, a 50 gallon stock tank/fish isolation, then a 40 gallon sump so I will have about 200 gallons in the system. The 200 is rated to "aquariums up to 250 gallons" the 250 is for "500 + aquariums". I'm leaning more towards the 250 just because I want as efficient of a skimmer as possible, as in super skimming, the last thing I want is high nitrates, so what do you think?
Short version
Should I go with the ATI Bubblemaster 200 which is rated for aquariums up to 250 gallons or should I go with the 250 for 500+ gallon aquariums? This is for a 200 gallon cuttlefish/ceph/reef system, not single tank. would the 250 be too much over kill?
Thanks a lot,
Sam
