Tank Set Up

I'm setting up a 65 gal tank with a 25 gall sump.
With:
Nova Extreme T5 lighting, 2 10000K & 2 Actinic & 3 lunar lights.
Red Sea: Berlin Protein Skimmer
Mag 7 or 9 pump.

What do you think? Good set up for a zoanthid and mushroom tank?

and get the extreme pro version, it has individual reflectors. it may cost more, but it's considerably more efficient and putting the light from those bulbs into the tank. mag 7 should be fine, but mag 9.5 (which I use on my 150 for the return) on a valve may give you more options.

what is the wattage of the 4 t5's? with zoanthids and mushrooms it doesnt matter a great deal, but if you ever wanted to keep anything else it may come into play.

ide say your fine.
