Default Skimmer Suggestions for 90 Gallon

I just bought a new 90 gallon tank yesterday and I'm going to slowly buy the things I need for it like lighting and a skimmer so I was wanting some suggestions on some skimmers . I only have 3 criteria # 1 and most Important it has to be very quiet # 2 most efficient for the money "$ 250.00 or less" and #3 easy to set up and low maintenance. The one I'm leaning toward is the Remora Pro with the mag 3 , I was thinking about the Remora with the maxi-jet 1200, but someone told me it would be quieter with the mag 3 is that true? any suggestions would be appreciated.

Do you have a sump? If not then yes go with the Remora Pro with a Mag3. If you have a sump I would recommend a Euro-Reef ES5-3.

I have the Remora C with Max-Jet 1200. It is only load when you move the collection box to clean it. But this is recommended for tanks up to 65 or 70 gallons, i think.
