Would a Refugium or Wet/Dry filter be the best choice?

I am starting a 210 gallon salt water tank. Initially I will have fish and live rock with the goal of adding coral in the future. Should I start out with a Refugium or Wet/Dry filter. Also, with the same idea in mind what kind of lighting should I start with. I am trying to minimize the repurchasing of equipment when the times comes that I am able (i.e. have the time to maintain) to add coral.

Thank You,

Kevin

 

For a 210: both if only one Fuge.
Lights: MH's

 

i run both a refugium and a wet/dry on my sps tank. the refugium is feed from the chillers which drains into the wet/dry to save having an extra pump.

as for lights: metal halides give alot of options

 

It seems I have many people viewing this question, but not many replies. Is there someone out there with an informative and all inclusive answer? Just to review, initially I will have an all fish salt water tank with the possibility of live rock (not a requirement) and maybe add coral in the future. The tank can be 150g or 210g to fill the space I have.

 

Some people have different opinions. But I think both will be a good option as well. As for the lights definitely MHs with vho actinic supplementation. By the way are you going to run a skimmer? You should definitely consider buying a good one.

 

we are answering your ?'s look down

what are you going to put the corals on?

 

All inclusive in this hobby??? Not gonna happen!!!!
