hey ok so i have a 55 gallon tank with about 50 pounds of live rock and 50 pounds of live sand soon to be 100 pounds of it, i might have 60 pounds of live rock idk, i want to make it into a reef tank.

i am getting a HOB refugium, and a aquaC pro protein skimmer, i was told that if i put the macro algae in there with another peice of live rock, that it would be the only filteration that i would need, i will also have 2 1200 maxi jets in there for water movement and such, will i need a mechnical filter like a fluval 404 or something or will it be fine/????
