Refilling of tanks is accomplished through an auto-fill fitted into the freshwater sumps and new saltwater mix made up in the marine sumps.

Wet-Dry Filters: Wet-dry filters are typically rectangular acrylic or glass reservoirs that sit below the aquarium. Most are divided into two basic sections, the "wet-dry" chamber and the "sump."
