Default looking at setting up new tank

hi everyone,

im in the process of planning for a new tank, and i don't have any experience with sumps, overflows and skimmers and the such. I have ordered the aquarium reef: volume 3, which should be in my mailbox today according to chapters. Is there any online sources anyone could recommend for this kind of information. a lot of the links in the referrence library seem to be dead...

Check out www.melevsreef.com he has a good site with some good info on how sumps works and different designs for them.

Try this site. There's a lot of great discussions on all the topics/subjects you listed. Can't find something with the search function? No problem! Just start a new thread and ask your question. :-). Places like that are much more valuable than books In my humble opinion. Books typically have one opinion where forums can present many more. Although this could be a bad thing too I suppose.. .

At any rate, good luck and remember to have fun :-D
