Personally, the only one I think is worth spending money on is a Deltec. The Remoras are good for collecting dust, not skimmate imo, and nothing else is worth mentioning. I say Deltec, or don't bother and just keep up on bigger waterchanges, and a bit more maintenance. What kind of corals are you keeping?

In that case definitely go for the Deltec as you will probably end up overstocking your tank, and a good skimmer will help you keep nitrate and phosphate lower.
