60 Gallon acrylic tank with built in wet/dry filter

[Fishnthehood]

Stopped in a lfs here in the 909 and picked up a tank for my current fish room/man cave. Got it at a good price but I've never had a tank with a built in wet/dry filter. Any one out there have experience with these types of tanks?

I'm assuming I need a pump Any recommendations ?

Get small powerhead should be enough, not sure what size. When filling the tank and filter, fill the tank all the way to just before the inflow, fill the filter quarter of the way and then plug it in. Might wanna get more bio-ball/media.

I don't have any good advice. But i will say this, make sure there is some sort of system to keep it from running dry or overfilling your tank, like a check valve or something. I'm not sure.

I do know this for certain, that looks ultra-cool!!

Thank You Both.

I'll set it up in a few weekends and post some pictures.
