The powerheads are good. My want one koralia 2 and one koralia one though. The protein skimmer is crap. That one sucks plus you want one thats rated for double your tank volume. Look at asm, msx, coralife, euroreef skimmers.

As said before. The skimmer is crap. Powerheads are the best IMO, but you may want to get 2's and not 1's. Like above said.

I would get K-3 or 4
your tank is 4 feet long right..
Would be hard to get flow to the other side with a 1 or 2
you'll have less dead spots in the tank also.

spend a little more money and get one of these
