Well, canisters aren't really good for saltwater IMO. It will have to be cleaned week or nitrates will build up Aton.

Well, many reasons. Detritus easily gets trapped in there, are creates nitrates. Some of the media traps nitrates, and then they will just build up.

A sump would be best. A HOB filter would do too.
