The canister filter and the aquaclear (when using filter floss or sponge material) will promote the growth of aerobic bacteria which will contribute to the nitrate level. All you really need is live rock, refugium, and an efficient skimmer. Since you already have a canister filter you could use it with small amounts of carbon that is changed frequently.
