Specs:
50 gall clear for life
Euro fill 60 sump
Rio HF20 as a return pump (in the sump)
SCWD
CPR CS102 Overflow
75lbs. of Live Rock
60lbs. of Live Sand
Now Im pretty lost when it comes to lighting and a skimmer.
I would like to keep hard and soft corals in the tank. The lighting unit I was looking at was the Corallife Power Compact Luner 36" with 96 watt 10,000K Daylight and 96 watt True Actinic 03 Blue Compact Fluorescent Lamps plus two 3/4 watt Lunar Blue-Moon-Glow LED 470nm Lamps. But will that be enough to have both hard and soft corals?The price range that I currently have due to the holidays is 200-300 bucks. Any suggestions?
Now on the skimmer I was looking into the ASM g1 http://www.windowtothesea.com/display.php?cat=21&subcat=290&item=1883
I haven't heard many people talk about this skimmer but I have been hearing a lot about the remora's and CPR backpacks. Any recomendations on a skimmer? I just want it to do its job efficiantly and be in the sump...
Also what is a refugium? And how do I start one?
