You are doing the right thing with the live rock and sand, we lost power a few years ago and our sand went sulfurous and was quite nasty. With a 12g it is nice and easy to start over.
I know they are pricey but I think you will be really happy with the AI, just to give you an idea, here is a 350g with them:

The AI generally will light a 2x2 area if you raise them up high enough. You are going to have to go with at least 2 no matter which ones you are going to get. I believe the Orpheks are longer and you could get away with just one. I run 2 AI overs my 57g which is three fee long, when they...
You need to keep the biocube 29s on a perfectly flat surface. People don't realize if they are leaning forward at all it puts a lot of pressure on the front curves of the glass which can cause them to fail. The ones that are 14g and under don't really have this problem due to the small water...

It really depends on the the fish and/or corals you are keeping. For example, a complete NPS tank needs to be fed a ton (the TOTM over on RC has the guy feeding every hour 20 times a day) and therefor there is a ton of waste that needs to be taken into account for. Same thing applies to fish...
Another 60,000 people lost power today in Monmouth county and could be out another 2-3 days. We had power in my office this morning than at around 9:45 everything went out and it is not back up.
I finally have moved and can no longer keep running back and forth to Trop for RODI water and actually have the space and everything else to get my own RODI unit. Figure I mix around 20-30 gallons of saltwater a week and go through about maybe another 10 with top off and dosing. I am looking...
