Hey folks! The wife found a great deal on craigslist and after a little bargaining, I get a 100G frag (48x48x12) tank with stand and she gets to set up a 55G Discus tank. http://www.aquariumadvice.com/forums/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" /> BTW- thanks for the suggestions in the other thread about where to get them.
I would like suggestions on sump size. We have quite a few empty tanks, but they are all 20G or less except for one that won't fit the stand. So I'm going to need to look for yet another tank. :doh:
Lighting.... I'm thinking 1x250 MH pendant or 6-8 T5s. The heat is a concern with the MH. Is it worth it over the T5s? Thoughts? Recommended fixtures?
This is going to serve mostly as a growout tank for corals intended to go into our reef tanks in progress, but I was thinking of adding a damsel or two for pest consumption and a decent cleanup crew. Suggestions?
Also as you can see, it does need quite a bit of cleaning. What's the best way to clean acrylic of salt creep and dead coralline?
TIA!
