Which skimmer should I use??

Ok so I have a MRC 6r on my system now, I have 300 gallons total volume and it's pretty stocked, this thing works flawlessly, it's a beast! BUT, I also have the MRC orca pro 2, so what do I do?! Which skimmer?! I am gonna setup the orca as soon as my needle wheel mod arrives for my reeflo dart. I'll make my decision then based on things like performance, space needed, difficulty to (fine tune) and etc, just wanna see what you folks recommend. The 6r or the orca?! Thanks for your time .

Just curious, what "needle wheel mod" do you need for the Pro 2? It comes ready to go.

It all depends on your level of attention to maintenance, IMO. I would put a beckett skimmer against any other skimmer, as a becket that is cleaned, properly setup, and with a proper pump, will outskim ANYTHING IMO. However, if youre "lazy" about cleaning the becketts, etc, the go with the Pro 2.
