    Just getting back into the swing of things.  I have a 60 gallon aquarium that is reef ready.  I need to get a wet/dry and possibly refugium.  Also, if anyone has any corals they'd be willing to sell or donate.  I don't have a wild amount of money for the cause quite yet, but would love any help or advice someone could give me.  Thanks for making Iowa such a saltwatery world!  :+)

    I have some nice zoanthids that would do good as starter corals for yea. I don't charge to much. Let me know if you interested.

    I would be very interested. Let me see if I can find someone willing to sell a wet/dry and refugium.

    I would reccomend building your own sump. the premade wet drys in my opinion arent worth the money. 90% percent of the time you wont use the bio balls anyway. I made the mistake of buying one when i first started and found out it didnt have enough room in it for equipment. I do however have a hang on the back overflow $25

    Wetdry's can be used for a sump, just don't use the bioballs. Make sure you have the room needed for skimmer, heater, return, etc. Petco is having their $1.00/gallon tank sale currently so you could buy one for your fuge and/or sump cheap. If you buy a larger tank, you could do a sump and fuge together, just buy a few pieces of glass and silicone them in place. You could oversize your return pump and t-off it to feed the fuge, run reactors,etc. Of course, a fuge isn't absolutely necessary but a skimmer is as well as running GAC and GFO. Welcome back to the wet side ;-0)
