Well it's your tank and your decision. Research different skimmers and decide on which one will best suit you, your tank set up, and your budget. That is a good skimmer IMO and does a good job IMO. Others seem to prefer injections type skimmers but I have never tried one. If you are handy there are mods you can do to the ASM skimmers to make them skim even better - check out their website. Others have been very pleased with the Coralife Super Skimmer - another one you might want to research. At the end of the day it is your decision and your wallet!

i saw this one that was included in a acrylic sump by sealife rated for a 200G tank, do these skimmers suck?? also, i measured my stand and the G3 wont fit....but the G2 will. the G2 is rated for a 200g tank. do you think it will do?

ok, i looked up most of the other skimmers that will fit and it seems the G2 is going to be the best for what i need it for, it fits in my sump and under my stand....is a 30g sump enough for this tank?
