Skimmer advice?

[kwill]

Hello, I'm new to this hobby and learning everyday(already havegotten so great advice from this site). I'm in the very beginning stages of a 90gal build. I have purchased my RR tank, stand, and canopy and sump/refugium and an RO/DI system. Now due to the space in my sump's first chamber(8x15) I'm limited in choices of skimmers. From little research I've narrowed my choices to the Aquac ev180 or the Reef octopus extreme xs 160. I was hoping I could get some feedback on either of these skimmers or if one is better than the other and/or possibly introduced to another quality skimmer. Any advice or opinions will be greatly appreciated.:fish:

I have owned a couple of Octopus Skimmers and both have been awesome! I don't think that you can go wrong with an Octopus.
