itll have a bunch of live rock in the sump area. but itll all be rock I buy locally for a buck a pound or base rock I get for 1.50 a pound.

and the sump will be a 300 gallon feeding trough. im in a farm area so I can get a good used one for about 50 bucks from a farmer.

You mean dry rock? Some places I wanted to buy fresh live rock from could be very high, anywhere from $8 to $11 a pound. It's like the air freighter stuff though.

yeah base rock dry rock. but I can buy live rock locally for a buck a pound on craigslist and local groups. out here a lot of people shut down their tanks or downgrade and live rock goes for 1-2 bucks a pound. I figure ill have upwards of 500 pounds of rock in the sump area. not sure if im going to do a skimmer, or a giant ATS. if I do a skimmer that will add a lot of cost to the setup but considering its a predator tank it would be the best idea.
