Just getting started

My experience with aquariums is extremely limited and this is my first go at a saltwater set up. I need all of the help I can get. I'm in no hurry and looking forward to this forum. Thanks ahead of time!

For Reference: I am looking to get either a 75 or 48 gallon aquarium. Undecided due to location.

1. 2 canister filters vs only 1 vs. sump
was told about using 2 canister filters with 1 using ceramic beads and 1 with Carbon

2. Do I need a protein skimmer if using canister filter(s)?

3. LED lights worth the $$?

Thanks ahead of time for all of the input.

Brian
