Need to set up a new tank... NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[skene]

So I've got some ideas...

I want to set up the most awesomest reef possible. Now.. I have an idea of some of the livestock I want to keep. I wanna put in a percula clownfish and a blue tang... and maybe a couple of snails and hermit crabs. Put in a BTA as well. If there is any other coral that would look nice in the tank please feel free to recommend. I have about 50lbs of rock I can work with from an established tank that has these cool anemones called mojanos and aiptasia (these are cool cause when you touch them they hide).

Here is the new tank I am going to purchase later. It has an LED so I think it would be sufficient light. Maybe I can mod it to fit a 3w Cree bulb and a dimmable driver, but I will have to take the fixture apart and measure everything.

Now my question is. What kind of sump could I use and I will be needing a skimmer as well... Will I need an overflow box or do you think I can get this drilled and use bulkheads? so does anyone have any recommendations... it would be greatly appreciated.

:idea:








ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

gotta use a HOB skimmer, unless you use a sump but for that size u need a minimum of 50g.. and i wouldnt go sps untill you add that cree led... no need for a dimmer just run it all out!! if you are fgonna run a sump you need good flow.. so forget 1in just go 2" youll be fine.. just use a bigger pump mag 12 i think but us a valve to control return flow..

good luck and remember u wanted a tang, so u cant have any other or the tang police will arrest you!

Make sure that you get your ATO running and your 200gpd RO unit. You are going to need it.

 

[NYreefNoob]
