Sump question

[Patchy]

Im taking my tank apart this week and will be adding a sump to it.

my questions is what should i do with the sump make it a wet dry or a fuge?

in the display im only keeping a lion and a few corals so what you think would be the better option?

If you are planning on having corals then I would opt for the fuge. If you have enough liverock (1-2lbs. per gallon of water) then you won't need the wet/dry, especially with your plans for only a lion. I think you will have better water quality for corals.

Fuge it is,
Display volume is 60g and sump will hold around 30g of water. Im going to do the whole DSB, LR and macro in the fuge.

Would it be ok to have a pair of jawfish in there? i know its not the point of a fuge but they are so cool and it was save another tank being started

Wet/drys are boring and really do not add anything back into the system. Use lots of live rock and the refungium. Sometimes I spend more time on the floor staring at the refung, checking out all the little critters. Refungiums complete the ecosytem that keeps water health. Plus a refungium will keep growing as your lion does.
