Well I haven't been on here in a while but I'm getting ready to set up a 180g dual overflow tank. (big upgrade from my 55g) Anyway I'm not sure of what kind of equipment to get as far as lights (MH of course but how many 2 or 3 and how many watts 250 or 400 and 10k, 12k, or 20k), skimmer, pumps and power heads. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'm doing 3 x 250w LumenMax 3 with 14k Phoenix bulbs for lighting. You'll need some nice flow as well, I would recommend a combo of Votech and Tunze pumps. 2 x MP40's and a couple of Tunzes as well. Hope this helps.
Is there a specific reason of using a combination...wouldnt 2 mp40s be sufficient?
