Hey folks...currently building a fishroom to support in-wall 180. Am pre-planning for eventual system setup and want to see if I'm thinking about this the right way.
Have been keeping freshwater since '77 and saltwater since '86...been out a few years to get married and breed some kids.
Here's how I am seeing this: LPS slightly more forgiving than SPS, water and lighting are slightly less critical. LPS and SPS will chemically fight with eachother so a mixed tank to be done carefully. Conspecifics will not harm one-another. I am thinking an LPS dominant tank with medium fish bioload. Already know I will go LED route but have some time so technology and pricing will only improve.
