Any info would be greatly appreciated... I just got a 39g bowfront tank with a millenium 3000 wet/dry multi-filter. I guess my question is that is it better to have a canister filter or a hang on type? And does anyone have any good or bad comments on that filter. As soon as i figure out whats the best way to go on my filtration i want to go get some LR and start my cycle period. Also my lighting that i got was a deluxe series double linear strip compact fluorescent with fans. 1-96w actinic and 1-96w 10,000K fluorescent lamp 36" made by coral life. Does anyone know bout this lighting set up and is it decent or not also would a moon light setup be a nicer way to go? Do i need a protein skimmer right away? And what would be a decent one for the price, i know you dont want to skimp on these but if there is somethin i can get at a decent price for now i can always upgrade in a few months. I plan on doing a coral tank and some fish so any help would be greatly appreciated. I also am currently reading a few books as well as reading many posts here online. thanks again
