    Would love the 525 but I think 425 is gonna be the one. I actually need to measure the width of my basement stairs to make sure the tank will fit. That’s like the most obvious thing I need to do that I have not done :)

    Understood. I’m probably going to want to err toward an LED then unless the benefits far outweigh an LED.

    Can that be bracket mounted? I want to avoid things hanging from the ceiling if possible.

    No real budget other than the wife. Although I am questioning the lights as I want to grow coral. I see lots of LED’s nowadays

    Thanks Mrx, one thing I did fail to mention is that I predomantly want to have SPS and LPS corals. I’d love an anemone at some point down the road too.

    Returning To Reef Keeping After 10 Years

    They look really nice and I like the fact they come as a kit. Thanks for the tip on the Website Trio, that store looks pretty good. Does anyone have any comments or feedback on the components that come in the kit? Specifically the lights? I have listed them below: 98.9 Gallon Low Iron...

    Base Rock or Fully Live Rock

    I was reading about the Pukani and I think that’s the way to go along with some live rock and rubble

    Base Rock or Fully Live Rock

    Used to run Green Chromis and Wreck Fish in my other tanks. Was never an issue. The only issues I ever had was putting the wrong tangs together. I wish I had pics but of my old tanks, cant find anything.

    Base Rock or Fully Live Rock

    I'll probably go the a mixture gong heavy on dry rock from the ocean, something with a large surface area. I'll the hand pick live rock and take the risk. I think that will now be my plan!
