Try coralife super skimmer. I use a over sized one one my first set up 20gal, then 40 gal now its on a 75 gal. Its capacity is for 125 gal. I will probably go custom skimmer when I go with a larger tank and sump. The Skimmer has served me well. Must keep power head air intake clear from salt deposits and make sure you replace impeller and shaft every 18 months or so.
I wouldn't go with anything less. When you upgrade 3 times like me you don't want to buy 3 skimmers!

I don't know what you plan on spending, but if you have some room (and it takes some room) I've been really happy with the Aquamedic Blue1000 that I got from www.aquacave.com
They aren't uber cheap, but $199 US isn't bad considering what people pay for some skimmers. It pulls a lot out and only uses 12W. It is BIG though. I use it in sump rather than HOB but it's made for both. Another one you might want to consider is a Tunze...the 9002 is rated for about 58G and doesn't take much room but is known for being good.

Never had a problem with my Remora. Mine skimmed pretty good on my 24 gallon and even better on my 75 when I first set up that tank. The only reason I am selling it is because like most reefers I'll have a full / overstocked fish tank and wanted an in sump skimmer.
I can't see how it would be finicky but like I said I have never had a problem with this unit. Just my 2 cents.

I'm with Hockey Nut on this...I have 2 Remora Pro skimmers and am quite happy with them......I'd prefer the Deltec MCE 600 but the Remora does just fine!
