Anyone see anything practical they would add to list?

I read the FX 6 can pump water back into the tank after emptying itusing its water changing feature. You think that would work or a pump better?

Hi all, here is a list of what I have purchased for my 125 gallon, all of your suggestions were super helpful. Plan on it as a FOWLR for now with hardy fish. Fluval Fx6 Aquarium Canister Filter (FX-6 Filter Package) Fluval Biomax Bio Rings - 500 grams/17.63 ounces Instant Ocean Sea Salt...

What does everyone think about running 3 or 4 koralia nano 565's along with the FX6 in my FOWLR 125g rather than a stronger singular or dual circulation pump? Figured probably smaller profile with more options to direct circulation?

Thanks HTH. So you think this reactor would help offset the nitrogen? Would you still recommend using something like purigen to help? I am willing to do the once a week change with canister. Thanks!

Someone was saying live rock/skimmer/power heads and axe the canister. I was thinking canister good to flush out debris etc. I dont want a crazy amount of rock maybe just 75 lbs or so of rock. I guess my question is was spending 300 on the fx6 overkill? I like the idea of overkill with regards...

Am I being totally crazy going with the FX6 canister for a saltwater? I read a lot of old threads saying so. Not sure if canister technology has improved... I do not want a trouble with a sump, cannot risk any type of overflow. Once again it will be a basic FOWLR with live rock

Is one Sicce Voyager 3 1200gph good enough if I have the Fluval FX6 canister? I here the fluval will really move things. I am not planning on a crazy amount of rock or fish to begin with

Thank you all for your replies very helpful. I have some rock I think some were live and some seem like old coral etc. How would I go about curing these? I just got my substrate and want to know how to proceed like I said I am patient and will wait months if needed. I also have some driftwood I...

Live rock it will be! Do I need a skimmer or more power heads you think with the FX6? I would like to know quick what to get to get the system running and live rock growing

Thanks, fish only I was wondering if I even need live rock? Budget no big deal I just want to start off with a simple salt water tank.

I have a 125 gallon tank. Just purchased fluval fx6 canister filter. 80 lbs substrate. I want to get a salt water tank going, no live reef or anything just eventually some clowns/tangs etc. Please if anyone could let me know what I need to get to start the ecosystem going such as skimmer, type...
