what should i put in canister filters????
I am moving my current 125 gallon reef into a 220 gallon tank...I have always run a sump but my 220 isn't drilled so I have to adjust my ways of thinking on filtration...I am going to put an manual overflow but I want a lot more filtration then that can give me..So I will have a 75 gal sump and 3 fluval x5's.
My question...What should I put in the 3 fluval's. I have a protein skimmer and a 40 watt uv light so I am set there. I have heard of people using the canisters as a reactor but what is it im am supposed to put in them? I have not used canisters on a salt before. P.S..im doing this now so quick answer's if possible would be awesome. Its todays project Not moving the livestock of course just setting it up to cycle.. |

Why not just drill the new tank and avoid the issue altogether? Drilling is easy, you can then plumb it the right way, and not have to worry about it?
