Do you have a budget in mind?

a 40 br is pretty small. You can almost get away with water changes. But a BM nac 3.5, swc 120 and a tunze 9002 are all nice smaller options. The octo nw 110, sro 1000sss and the skimz 121 would all be nice larger options. Just be sure not to get something with too large of a neck.

I have a Tunze 3130/2 That I will sell for $150. Had it on my 60 frag till last knight when I finally got time to tie 60 into my sump. Check out pictures and u can see in corner of 60. Littte over kill, but I like the idea of going big. Also u can see picture of it in box on photobucket (1tyme1). Good luck. Happy reefing. God Bless.
