Coralife Super Skimmer 125 gets 9/10 if you can get it to work right.
(I still must have some Melafix in my water, b/c even on the lowest flow setting it fills up the overflow cup within an hour)
You WILL NEED TO go to your local truevalue hardware store and pick up a thicker o-ring for the pump, as it WILL leak out a jet stream of micro bubbles into your tank or sump - my personal experience.

EDIT: Finally working right again. I had it running for only 1-2 hrs a day for the last week, and it kept on overflowing.
Today when I plugged it in, it filled the collection cup half-way, then started working normally again!!!
