OK! let me start by saying this is by far the best site I have been in. You guys really hook it up with good info. "much tanks"
Well I started with my 40gal reef with fish aquarium about 8 months ago and its has been going pretty good. I currently have a skilter 400 doing my filtretion and a maxijet 900 doing the water movement. I also have about 30lbs of live rock and 20lbs of live sand, my lighting is by a PC jalli a18 7100k d/l bulb and a 55w actinic blue bulb.
But of course the addiction is making me think about up grading to a 75 or a 100 gal tank. Now my question is, should I invest better in a acrylic tank that has the wet/dry filter and skimmer already built into it. Or should I just set up my own sump. (I really don't have any room to do fancy plumbing, so it would have to be a real simple one)
Can you guys give me some pro's and con's about both types?
