A few equipment Q's

Ok I have a chance to get these.

And my tank is a 40 beeder.


ok is a 2 x 175Watt MH lights (2xM57 ballasts, 2 spider reflectors, XM 20k bulbs) good for SPS as well as LPS and Zoos??

And is a Kent Nautilus TE skimmer w/ Via Aqua Pump good enough for a 40 breeder with a 20 sump?



Any help is much appricated and thanks in advance.



Alex

I am running the Nautilus TE on my 120 driven by a mag 7. The tank has only been up a week, but it seems to be doing a good job. The LFS that I go to uses one on his live rock tank, and he likes it. I bought the skimmer on line before I found this LFS. So he did not sell me mine.
