Default best skimmer for 90 gallon?

Thoughts on skimmers for a 90 gallon with a 30 gallon sump. Looking for ease of use and affordability. Pros and con's of a cone skimmer (reef octopus) vs a box skimmer (aquac style) Too many choices!!!

If this fits into your budget I would think its tough to beat for the price.

Vertex omega 130 is still in stock at BRS and is at 40% off (150 ran out of stock). Might wanna have a look at it. Shipping is around $32 I believe.
