As for the wet/dry/canister, you are suggesting I remove them and
only leave the LR,DSB and Protein skimmer?


Many people use wet\drys or canisters in salt tanks with success. I
ran one myself for a time. I raise an eyebrow at anyone in this
"hobby" that gives absolutes. However, they CAN result in nitrate
problems, once the bacteria in them produces nitrates faster than
your Live Rock can process it.
That said, the LR replaces biological filtration. LR processes
ammonia clear through to denitrifying the nitrates. With a functional
DSB, you're even further from needing any "artificial" biological
filtration.
