substrate and filter set up
 

just wondering what the best substate and filter set-up would be for a 90gallon FO tank.

I found the substrate depends on the type of fish you want to keep in there.

I have a digging trigger, so I went with a coarser substrate that I can vacuum.

IMO live rock will always be the best filter you can get.

My very first post !
I would think that also a good quality skimmer will make your life easier !

I 've had crushed coral,sugar sand,and bare bottom.All were easy to maintain(the sand tends to stir up easily,but looks better IMO)definatley cant beat good old live rock!once cured,it's full of good stuff to help your tank.As far as filtration goes there are many ways to go,all depends on the tank set up(fish only,reef,predator tank...)I'm useing canister type rightnow,untill i can build a sump,but there are lots of more experienced people on here who would be more than glad to share their ideas :mrgreen:
good luck :biggrin:
