Water box 220.6

[eqbal9947]

Hi guys, I just bought a water box and it’s on back order.
I have about 2 months to get all the equipment I need before it arrives.
Anybody have suggestions or tips that has had a water box. I would like to buy a skimmer but scared it won’t fit. And not sure what kind of rocks I should use. Was going to go with caribsea but I’ve been told that dry rock is better.
Would love and tips or suggestions as this is my first aquarium.

If you visit Waterbox's website you can find the technical specs and dimensions of the sump which should you figure out which skimmer will work for you. You should be able to fit a Nyos Quantum 220 skimmer (or equivalent), though. Some other things you may want to look into are a fleece roller vs. standard filter socks, a UV sterilizer and control system (Neptune, etc.).

Rocks are pretty much personal preference. I went with dry Marco shelf and base rocks and CaribSea Oolite sand.
