WET/DRY FILTRATION

[duane r]

I WAS CONSIDERING ON INSTALLING A AQUA-CLEAR PRO 200 WET/DRY W/PREFILTER TO A 46 GALLON FOWLR AQUARIUM. I'M BRAND NEW TO THE SALTWATER EXPERIENCE. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANYBODY'S VIEWS, COMMENTS AND/OR OPINIONS, BOTH THE POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE SIDES WOULD BE APPRECIATED. THANKS FOR THE INFO???

I have the same set up on a 92 gallon corner tank. It's been set up for about 7 months, and is working great. The skimmer seems to do an excellent job for being part of the unit.
The tank has all aggressive fish, and my water stays tests fine every time. The only thing I changed was the filter media in the drip tray. I ordered the media that comes with the Amirical wet drys, and it filters the small patricals much better. I bought a 4'x4' pad, so I can change it often.
