CPR CY192 filter?


hey everyone im a new member at trt and am looking at a CPR CY192 Filter for my 55gallon hex tank, comes with a protein skimmer and overflow box, wondering if anyone has used one or is using one and if it would be good or not, it will be replacing my fluval 305. the tank has been cycling for about 2 weeks just starting to get nitrite levels up so far all i have is crushed coral substrate and about 20lbs of fiji live rock.

man, i swore i wrote a post to this thread last night.

i prefer seperates to those all in one kinda filters. the overflow and sump are pretty good, but it is the skimmer that is skimped on. this is the one piece of equipment that should not be skimped on.

i would prolly buy an overflow, get a 20L and use the rest of the money to get a real skimmer. if you could get a MRC skimmer that would be fantastic, but i do not know what your total budget is.
