Total newbie needing advice...

Thanks, I think I get the gist of things, now for a 4ft tank can anyone give me a rough guide as to how much Live rock and sand I would need as a bare minimum to provide some good biological filtration along with a protein skimmer and an external filter?
Oh and the questions will proboly keep on coming cuz i obviously don't wanna screw this up. :confused:
 
PS A sump is not an option, sounds to dodgy and definately sounds well out of my budget!!!
Sorry :(
 
As far as live rock goes, a good rule for it is 1.5 - 2 pounds per gallon. I have a 55 gallon tank and should have 110lbs of live rock. I am not quite there yet though. The more live rock the better.

Hope this helps.
