Getting a skimmer

Wow I've had way to many questions about fish and equipment lately! Nano reef is pretty much to keep me mentally sound. Anyways I'm planning to get the Reef octopus HOB classic 100 for my 45 gallon tank. Since it's rated for up to 100 gallons would it be fine if I get it for my 45 gallon or will it over skim my tank? (If that's a thing).

 

I have 7 fish which are all relatively small and I feed 1/4 of a cube of mysis and 1 pinch of flakes/pellets and maybe some nori on a clip. This is once a day.

 

P.s. So sorry for this newbie question been in the hobby for only a few months

 

Thank you fellow reefers,

Mark

While I'm asking this I might as well ask if I were to also get an algae scrubber what size would you recommend?

I'd skip the scrubber and go with a skimmer. Check out the Aquamaxx HOB skimmer as well.

Size-wise you should be fine.

I have IM Fusion Nuvo 40. I was thinking of getting Aquamaxx HOB-1, but I could not get pass the big size hanging on the back. I like clean look and I decided to go with IM Ghost Skimmer Mid-size
