Hi everyone
So the marine bug bit me and I'm currently planning on getting the following setup. I'm not from the states so I have a couple of restrictions as so what I am able to buy from our LFS. I'm planning on getting a 85g softie and lps tank that is 48"(L) x 24"(w) x 18"(h), considering changing it 24" h
Depends on how the increased depth will affect the lighting. I'm planning on running a bubble magus curve 5 skimmer rated for 130g, a 60g sump with a refugium. For powerheads 2x Sicce voyager 4 powerheads with wavemaker controler (they are rated at 1600g each). For lighting I'm going for LED's but not sure what are the options I have available and what wouldn't break the bank completely. I was interested in the aquamaxx nemolight 72w but I don't think that It will be powerfull enough to have sufficient par readings at the depth. I've seen good lights on Amazon but I will then have to import them. Any advice and guidelines on the current setup will be much appreciated and whether or not it will work. TIA
