Just changed everything from my 30 gall. to this new setup.
40 breeder drilled with closed loop.
8x39 T-5 setup
Octopus NW-150 skimmer
2 mag 700 pumps
1 rio 1200 powerhead.
65 #s live rock
1 perc,1 six line wrase, monticap,and a few zoos.
For a sump I used a 20 long but changed it to a rubbermaid tub from Wal-Mart.

get rid of that rio!

Are you running those T5's on individual reflectors? If so you are going to bleach everything in your tank!

Good luck. Looking good so far.

rio's are notorious for burning up and they have some kinda oil in them that will pollute your tank and possibly kill everything.

Better safe than sorry.
