OK, I figured I would start a new topic to help me with all my questions and needs. First,

I just bought a 75g tank with a glass cover, and now I'm thinking the glass cover was a

mistake and a waist of money. I'm curious if it would be beneficial to maybe return the all

glass cover and maybe invest in a canopy instead of the all glass cover. Also, I've been

told to use a sump/refug instead of a wet/dry or canister, but am lacking the knowledge

of how to setup, and maintain a sump/refug. Id also like equipment suggestions as far

as maybe the sump, lighting, filter system, skimmer, etc., anything necessary to run a

sufficient reef aquarium. My tank is not an overflow tank (the ones with the holes in the

bottom) so would I need more for a sump/refug, or would I still be able to set it up

without the overflow. Any advice, suggestions, or opinions are much appreciated and

well be awarded with me having more knowledge and a better understanding of what I

need to get a fully functioning reef aquarium. :D
