    45 gallon tall - help and guidance needed

    I have never had an in sump skimmer, so I can't help you there. If you are going to go with SPS and LPS then go with the 6 bulb setup look at TEK or ATI, they are among the best. Look around for sales right now, they are expensive setups.

    45 gallon tall - help and guidance needed

    If you are not going to drill the tank or get a sump, I would recommend the Aqua C Remora skimmer as a HOB. Lighting I would go with the six bulb setup you have listed (depending on what type of corals you want to keep).

    40 Breeder Reef Plan

    I think you will be better off picking one yourself. Sponges and gorgonians can be hard to keep and usually need phyto dosing to stay alive. Look at the members group buy right now, the prices you get there are much much better than anything else out there. Packages tend to be much more than you...

    40 Breeder Reef Plan

    Both of those plans IMO is too much for your tank. Also, check out the group buy that is going on right now. I know you are going to Italy, but maybe see if Greg at R2R will hold for you. Coral banded shrimp are not really clean up, yes they will grab some food but they do not actively clean...

    45 Gallon Custom Marinland Cube Tank Build

    If you can wait (and I know I can't) I believe the next group buy in January is Premium Aquatics so you could save an extra 15%. I know that is a lot to ask to wait 2.5 months, I am chomping at the bit to setup my tank in a few weeks.

    Clownfish in Trouble!

    I feel your pain, I had a picasso clown get sucked into a powerhead, there was no doubt about the fact he was dead because he was folded in half. I got covers for all my pumps after learning that expensive lesson.
