The wet dry is external.
I was referring to the pump.
If you use a wet dry, you can use a drop in pump or an external one, depending on the room you have.

Every set up I have ever sold/installed, I have always used a wet dry. Extremely reliable.
However, if you are going to go via the way of a reef, I would recommend you look into a refugium. It is a wet dry on steroids for reefs. It is a much more modern method and very efficient for reefs.
