Hi Rockfish,

Wet/Dry system already an old matter whereby part of the bioballs are soak above water and part underwater. Think many reefer do not adopt this matter anymore.

Personally I think lots of Live rocks and Live sands by itself is already a good natural bio-filteration system.......support with stuffs like sponge or poly filter for mechanical filteration, skimmer for DOC & Active Carbon/rowaphos for Chemical filteration........should be sufficent for most LS.
