For Fish only tanks I like wet/dry with bio balls they do a great job of ammonia removal. As long as you maintain the bio balls. I would separate them into 3 compartments and rinse a compartment every 4th month with discarded water change water. Works for me.

Hi, Welcome to the site!
I agree with what Beaslbob said...but adding a Little detail: Your wet/dry is just fine...instead of the bioballs, convert the chamber into a refugium, and add a little light over it. Then keep an inch of sand, a few small pieces of live rocks, and macroalgea in it. You won't have to worry about nitrates or phosphates, and you won't even need a skimmer.
