New old reefer

Hey everybody,

So, I'm starting my 65g tank back up and was online looking for current LFS options in the Atlanta area and came across ARC. What a great resource! I've had my tank for about 11 years, but it hasn't had anything more than rock in it in maybe 2. Thanks to the sponsor forum I was able to find Einstein Aquatics which is close enough to me to help me get the ball rolling.

I know that I read it at least twice last week, but I can find the threads that I though I read it in...so, 10 times the volume of the tank in water circulation right?

Welcome to ARC.

And the answer to that question will depend on what you want to have in the tank.
Tell us more.

I'm just trying to get it back running for now. It's got a fair amount of LR in it for its size, maybe 80 lbs. I like corals and critters, so it will mostly just be a few small fish and as many cool corals and inverts as I can cram in there. I've got 300 W of light, but never really got around to keep corals in the past. It was always just fish and critters. I don't know how much you can tell from that, but all it has now is a little Maxi-jet 600 and I know that's not enough.

Thanks.

What kind of lighting? Meetal Halides or T5?

 

[rsuddath3]

Hahaha Neither. T12 VHO. I got an Icecap. Hence the "old".
