So what skimmer would everyone recommend for use in the 75 gallon range?

Keep it under 500 bucks please! And plug and go. I don't even wanna play.

I have xp 2000 octopus cone skimmer ! I like it and would recommend it ! Picky on water level though as most skimmers are i guess ! I paid 499 or 399 can't remember i went through premium aquatics as you don't have to pay tax and they are close enough were u still get fast shipping !

I have an Eshopps PSK-75H on my 29 gallon and love it! This is a hang on the back skimmer though, I don't know if you have a sump or not. Eshopps customer service is great too! You will want to go with the PSK-100H if you go this route. If you have any questions I'll be glad to answer.

I use the MSX 160 on mine. It is really close to the Octopus lines. They are all good skimmers and you can get them fairly inexpensive too.

I have turbo flow 1000 skimmer and it work great.

I don't use skimmer anymore because I run close loop system now with bio filter media.

If you are interested in it. You can have mine for $70... You just need to get an ocean runner pump and you are set.
