Question Which Protein Skimmer is better....

A)
JEBO 520 External Protein Skimmer
Description:


JEBO 520 Protein Skimmer improves skimming efficiency and gas exchange with venturi action. Water and air swirl together to produce abundant mini air bubbles in the vortex chamber, rapidly drawing out dissolved waste.Bubble foam is collected in a top mounted collection cup. Very easy to use and maintain. Ideal skimmer for both new and experienced marine aquarists.

Features:

  • New 2008 Model, just released. With new plumbing and more efficient design.
  • Fully Submersible Power Head AP5200 (800 g/h) included FREE.
  • Suitable for all marine aquariums up to 300 gallons.
  • Air injection control for quick, easy and precise adjustment.
  • Efficient protein skimmer with venturi action.
  • No air stone necessary.
  • More effective than air-driven protein skimmers.
  • Vortex reaction chamber.
  • Molded return spout.
  • Air injection bracket for easier access.
  • Air injection control above water level.
  • High capacity collection chamber.
  • Suitable for Marine and Fresh Water
  • Dimensions: Height (21 inch.) Width of Cylinder (6.5 inch.) Width of Base (9 inch.) B)Red Sea Prizm Skimmer Deluxe
    High-Efficiency Hang-On for up to 100 Gal Tanks




    *Deluxe protein skimmers efficiently remove dissolved organic materials*Keep reef aquariums clean, clear, and free of harmful pollutants*Easy-to-install protein skimmer with supplementary chemical filtration
    Whether you're an experienced aquarist looking to upgrade, or simply shopping for your first serious skimmer, the Prizm Deluxe's (9-1/8" x 13-7/8" high x 2-3/8" deep) compact size, powerful pump, and easy "hang-and-go" setup make it a great choice for the small-to-medium home aquarium. Features an 18-blade Turbo-Jet Air Impeller that quietly generates a constant stream of microbubbles in a homogeneous air/water mixture. Patented, 2-stage reaction chamber extends contact time while providing both co- and counter-current action, creating protein-rich, stable foam. Requires 2" of headroom for removable 17 oz. collection cup. Includes adjustable height surface skimmer, filtration media basket, and carbon.

I'll third it. If you buy an el'cheapo skimmer you will PROBABLY end up buying a better one later, that just makes the el'cheapo MORE EXPENSIVE then if you would have bought the quality unit the first time. Aqua C is a great option, the CPR backpak with a maxijet 1200 is another good skimmer that is not account draining.
