well its my supervisor that wants a "touch tank" when i told her maintance etc would be alot easier with a regular tank with some reds and trout in. she suggested running a pipe from the gulf into this tank and circulating the water through it. other thing is that down here there is no saltwater store so getting rock rubble etc will be difficult. i was thinking a wet dry, carbon reactor and a protien skimmer.
