well i could use any recommendations or advice. I bought a used 10' ft x 2' ft x 2'ft tank

-how many gallons is this?

-is there stuff out there to fix scratches?

-what size pump would i need or make and model?

-how big of a sump do i need?

-what size or make of a protien skimmer do i need? going to do a soft and lps reef tank.

well any help would be great plus i will be needen most of this stuff.
 
1. size:
L x W x H /231 = G
120 * 24 * 25 / 231 = ~300G

2. Yes, sure is - best there is IMO -> https://www.micro-surface.com/default.cfm?page_id=175

3. What are yo planning on keeping in the tank?
a. If Reef - then Softy, or SPS, or mixed? - more flow
b. If FOWLER, or FISH only - less flow
c. planning on running a CLS ?


Post up what your plans are with this tank, and people will be able to answer your questions more appropriately.


::thumbup:: - I'd like to upgrade to a 10' x 4' x 30" one day.
Take care,
