How would you setup a 155RR Bow Front tank?
Keep in mind these inhabitants - lps,softies,shrooms,polys,zoas,clams,lots and lots of fish, perhaps way down in the future millies.
Now what equipment would you get? Brand, and size will be very helpful, and very much appreciated.
Thank you in advance for all your inputs.

Awilda, it does kind of sound like a dream sheet or wish list. What are you looking for?

Doesn't RR stand for reef ready? The question is how would you set up?

I'd like to know what the options are. From the least expensive to the higher end.
I am just trying to gage options here...

i was very close to making my 155bow saltwater but i didn't have space for a sump underneath.

i think you already have the sand and rock,right?
you would need a good 6 bulb t5 fixture or better yet 3- 250w mh. :irked: dumb top braces!
30g-40br sump
some tunzes on a multicontroller
good external return pump(sorry can't help you there)
large skimmer rated for @ least 200g(can't help you there either)

Hey Chris,
It sure does, doesn't it?:frown: I would just like to know how others would do this. You, and I have already discussed how to go with mine. I am satisfied with what we discussed, with the possible exception of the skimmer.

Scarf, just want to know how others would set up theirs. What do you mean you didn't have room for a sump underneath? The cabinet is quite large. My sump is 27X13X13, and can put a larger one in.
