Skimmer advice

Hello everyone,
I am in the process of getting everything together for a 210 gallon build. I am not sure what skimmer to get. Anyone have hands on experience with these skimmers?

I have never used them but I have seen lots of people using the Bubble Magus line of skimmers.

I have heard a lot of people use them and are very happy with them. I just want the best option that is available to me. Thanks for your input.

I'll stick around to hear from someone that is using the Quantum 160, they look mean. Not to complicate your decision making but have you looked at the Vertex, they look solid and have good reviews.

Owned 2 skimz non dc n loved them . I had no issue's with my pumps . I played with a curve 5,7 n they were quiet but was advised that the 9 was noisy when I was skimmer hunting at the time. Nyos looks nice but the new eden pump design is unproven in the market .Skimz,wm n earlier model nyos units used the old eden pumps that were hit or miss. I know the vertex was mentioned but I don't care to get my hands wet if i need to adjust the air ..
Good luck with the skimmer shopping .
