I am trying to plan out a 180 mixed reef tank, but I have a few questions to start out.
1. Do I need a protein skimmer right away?
2. What size overflow should I go with? I am going to buy a kit from glass holes dot com. They have multiple sizes and I was wondering if 1500gph was enough, or should I go for the 3000gph model... Or are those too much? What size return should I use?
3. I was thinking about using koralias for circulation. I was hoping to place them on back rather than sides. Is flow additive where I can buy say 4 750's to get about 3k and aim them diff directions? Basically what would work best?
Any and all advice greatly appreciated! Thanks!
