Hey everybody I just joined the forum today and am asking for a few suggestions for my new tank. It's a reef ready tank and I will be using a 75 gallon sump. Now I just wanted to know what I should use for equipment. Need suggestions on good protein skimmers. Led lights. Water movement. And so on. Would like to keep a soft corals and lps. Tank is a drilled reef ready 180. Bigger the better? Lol. Also. Any suggestions for which corals. And fish would be awesome! I'm not a complete boob in aquariums as I have a 75 gallon with an Oscar and know about the nitrification process. But saltwater. Completely new.. everyone's help would be appreciated!
