filtration methods

[markc]

Hi all on the other side of the pond.
I have my new Christmas box a 150 gallon (uk) tank .
I have been running a 50 gallon tank using the Berlin method (live rock)for two years with good coral growth.
I have considered purchasing another box of live rock (44lbs + 88lbs from the existing tank)in conjunction with plenum what do myou Guys think?
P.S. I have built a 3ft tall skimmer based on the Aero foamer a slightly smaller skimmer of the same design is working well.

Just my tuppence

If you don't have a DSB, I would consider adding more than 44 more pounds of live rock.

The plenum will be below the tank in a sump

I have 125# in my 72 and will be getting about 80# in my 55. I think it will save you time a frustration to get the lr to help nature out a bit in your tank. Dsb would be good idea too.
