    Well, you guys already know that I bought a 72 gallon tank and it did not come with a skimmer or a heater....

    for the heater....what heater should i get?? should i get 2 heaters of 150 watts and put one on each end or what do u suggest???

    Also, what skimmer do I get....I have a skimmer but it was used for a 24 gallon tank so im pretty sure thats too small for my tank....right??

    well, any suggestions, i will appreciate....thank you everyone...;D

    You use a sump on the system ? a 150 w heater is all you should need really but if you want larger ? Get a remotely controlled titanium WONN and several others make them. As for skimmer that depends on set up or sump ?
