Reefing newb
After setting up my nano reef for a short while all that I can think of is having a much bigger tank … however its becoming over whelming and I need your opinions and advise on what to do on the following ( I a sure more question will pop up as I progress)
I bought a fairly large yummy acrylic tank with the following diameters (71 (180 cm) L x 24 (60 cm) W x 24 (60 cm) T) I am currently working on fabricating the stand and buying the equipment related to it initially the below is what I am going for:
1. SUMP with the following diameters (36 (91.5 cm) L x 18 (46 cm) W x 12 (30.5 cm) T) I need your help and how to design the compartments and what type of PUMP to use.
2. What changes should I do if I wanted to do an auto top off system.
3. I am intending on using Live rock and adding corals mostly soft and some hard ones as well. And I am going with 2 sets of Coralife integrated system with Actinic and T5 Lights in addition to LED loner lights.
4. I am also going with the Coralife protein skimmer but I am not sure what capacity should I go for.
5. How Many Wave makers should I use and how strong should they be.
I am still not sure of the Live stoke i will be adding as the variety is low in the area I live in …..
Thanks in advance and I am sure that I will really enjoy this new built ….
