I would say the ASM G3 will do the job no prob, as long as you do the mesh mod. It kicks the G3's production almost double. I run a ASM G3 with a mesh mod no problem on my 120, and pull about a full cup of yummies a week.
Now.. To almost completely contradict myself. I do plan on upgrading to a Super Reef Octo XP-2000 Cone Skimmer later this year. The ASM G3 works, but that Bubble Blaster pump is one bad mama jama..
