Hey all, B)
I've been doing some reading on setting up a salt water aquarium and have a few questions. I came across a power head which is suppose to circulate the water. They vary in prices of course, does this device connect to the outlet of the external cannister filter? and is there really a big difference between these two power heads besides the price
AQUA ONE
* Suitable for both fresh & saltwater.
* Completely submersible
* Variable flow control
* Quiet & efficient
Output: 3000 lph
Max. head height: 3.5mt
Watts: 80w
Nozzles included: 19mm outlet & 21mm inlet
Power Lead Length: 1.7mt
Dimensions (LxWxH): 17.5 x 10 x 14cm
Warranty: 2 years
Aqua Medic Power Head PH2500
* 2500 lph
* 2.6mt Head
* 37 watt
* 3mt cable
* 18mm inlet & outlet connections
* 155x80x105 (LxWxH) without connections
* Suitable for fresh and saltwater
* Rugged pump housing
* Energy saving motor
* Polished ceramic shaft and bearing

I hear people talking about having a sump and an over flow box. What exactly are they in a nutshell, put simply? I am thinking about purchasing some accessories to start off my tank, do you think this will eliminate any possible future diseases or pests?
*Protein Skimmer( does it have to be expensive)
*Power Head
*UV Sterilizer
*Aqua One 2200 External Filter (catering for a 250L tank)
*Heater
*Hydrometer (digital version)
Thanx
