    Advice on HOB skimmers or sump/refugium

    I've looked at the Prism model, and your right some love and some hate it. It looks so different and cheap compared to most other models.

    New To This, A Couple Of ?

    True, we were hoping by limiting the chromis to 3 we would have more room for other cool fish, but 5-6 was our original plan. Maybe we should stick to it. is it too soon to add 2-3 more this weekend?
