The reason I'm asking is that the wet/dry filter that I priced was less exspencive than the cilender filter that I priced. Now the clinder was rated at 100 gal and the wet /dry was up to 60 gal . So what is the...

    Does wattage matter in a tank? If i want to go with a high wattage in a heater so i can get a biger tank in the future will it hurt any thing? Also Are wet/dry filters exsencive compared to a canester filter? Is there different types of wet/dry filters? If so what is the diferance? Aaron

    When it comes to heaters can you ever have too many watts? I know the rule is 200 per 100 gal. but if I plan on getteing a bigger tank at some point can you use a high wattage heater and be ok?

    ok so what about like a 29 gal would that be better? Is Live Rock a proper filtration or do you need a secoundary one as well. This is a Fish-Only tank here so do I need a Skimmer or can i get away with not having one?

    If you use LR do you need other filtration system? I have read that LR bacisly eats the waste in the water and thus filters it and if I get un-cured LR can I cure it in a bucket for two weeks or does it have to be in the tank that i'm going to use?
