Can any one take a peak and tell me what they think for my 75 gallon?

Wet/Dry filters are usually a bad idea for reef tanks or tanks with live rock. They are ok for fish only tanks if you keep them clean.

Im really getting confused now...So what should I be using for 75 reef with some fish in it for filtration??

A good Protein skimmer and lots of live rock, anywhere between 1-2 pounds of liverock per gallon of water.
Filters are pretty useless in a tank with plenty of rock and they eventually accumulate nitrates if you don't maintain them really well.

Along with a good protein skimmer, do you have a sump? You cannot beat a good running sump with lots of cheato and live rock in it.
