THANKS,

as a rough sketch it looks good, i have seen your other post so i dont need to repeat what they have there, but what brand name is your skimmer, filter, ect. those play a role
 
Be sure to make friends with your local saltwater fish store too...throughout your new setup, they can help out a lot.
So far, your initial tank ideas sound good.

ok thanks and what brands would be the best brand to bye from.
would a Berlin Turbo Protein Skimmer for 200 gallons be ok.
Well if you could just save me alot of the trouble and tell me the good brands thats would be great thanks.
 
one more thing just to make sure the air pump also needs to be triple the gallon so when i bye the 75 gallon tank i need a 200 gallon filter 200 gallon protein skimmer and 200 gallo air pump.

Thanks

am working on decoding this bit...once I understand it, I will get back to you.

:bugout:
 
o i meant an octopus makes triple the mess up a fish around the same size so it would be fitting to have all his systems tripled out. But this is just somthing ive read qiet a few times in many care gides so i fingure it may be correct.

thanks

I think he was implying he was having trouble understanding your spelling/grammar. Don't worry, but if you work on it you can see Greg perk up immensely! :smile:
