Paradises soft coral tank

[lou the reefer]

Looking to make a 35-60 gallon rare softie tank. What would be the best lighting. Would I need a skimmer or daily water changes could work? I currently have a 10 gallon for 2 years and I have always been doing water changes every weekend. Wondering if that could work for the softie tank. How much flow would be needed, I currently own a jeboa-10 and I run it at its lowest wave speed. Would a 100watt heater work?
Thank you

Most of these questions would be best answered by finding out what species you're looking to keep and then seeing what their demands are in terms of flow, lighting and nutrient levels.

100watt heating may be a little on the low end for that size tank.

Mostly mushrooms,zoas,tree types and later on gorgonians.

I have a 250watt heater on my 75. Can't advise real well on lighting without knowing what species you're hoping to stock, but I can't wait to see your final tank - are you doing a build thread?

Im going to setup the tank in august since im still in high school and I have to work this summer to pay for the tank. Might do one thought if you really want too.
