Skimmer recomendations, 75gal

[RicSeyler]

My friend is setting up a 75gal with a 20-30gal sump. What do you guys
think would be the optimal skimmer should he get. One big enough to
somewhat ease the care of the tank?

EV-120, EV-180, Urchin, or one of the EuroReef skimmers??

Thanks guy, it's appreciated.

Ev-120 if he never upgrades, Ev-180 if he might, or the EuroReef just because
it is the best out there. I prefer the EV series because removing the
collection cup (which you do reasonably often) is nothing more than lifting it
1/4" and out. .

I like and use the Snailman's diy skimmer,
http://www.hawkfish.org/snailman/diy4inskimmer.htm , at least read,
http://www.hawkfish.org/snailman/skimmer101.htm, this type of skimmer is
very efficient and easy to build.

Found a cool thread on RC with an interesting variation of a Becket skimmer,

if you would like a skimmer that does not use air stones.
