| To jump on the band wagon...(if there's any more room) I hafta agree w/ all the others. For what your trying to do here (assuming a reef tank) a HOB power filter really isnt much good. You can better w/ the other methods mentioned previously....Prolly the best advice I could give you would be to ask as many questions as possible here and other boards simply to get a non biased (not financially motivated to answer your questions a certain way) reply. I promise you, it will do much more for you in the long run...as far as dumb questions go...the worst we're gonna do is laugh at you, call you names and make you cry til recess is over....
In all seriousness, askng questions before you get to the " Why did it die?" stage of things is much easier for everyone... yourself mostly as it keeps you from making the same dumb mistakes we all made originaly, and will keep you from being discouraged.
Good luck, and happy New Year,
