    wet/dry or berlin sump for 55gal?

    Hello all, I was looking into getting a sump for the 55gal. The LFS by me only has the wet/dry megaflow by all-glass and says you are able to have a reef tank with that filter. I have heard that bio-balls dont work for reef tanks as the nitrites remain higher than ideal. LFS suggested I take...

    Thanks, I got him from the LFS for $34.00. They had a sale on all marine fish. He's loves brine shrimp and is nibbling at the LR and the seaweed sheet I put in there for him. I am very happy with this buy. :happyfish

    Can someone please post a pic of a HOB skimmer installed?

    Thanks for the picture Olga, from the sound of your name you are a nice old lady, I still dont like you but at least you posted a pic of the skimmer. It doesn't look that bulky to me, people make them out to be monsters hanging off the tank. Oh and I dont drink but thanks for the offer
