So I am contemplating my next move as far as tanks. If I were to upgrade from the 125g what size should i consider? I know most would be all about the 220g right off the bat, but in a real world, taking all into consideration is it still the best choice?
I would like to use my existing lights, the 6 foot nova extreme pro 12 bulb setup and my current sump/refugium which is supposed to be rated for up to 225g. In either scenario 180 or 220 I would need a new skimmer I already figured. I also have a 1200gph overflow box if the new purchase isnt drilled. What else would I need? I also would get two more powerheads to join the two 1400 Koralias I currently have. or go all out and get a vortech, but thats a big maybe lol
So I guess what I wanna know is, which size would be best, if my 12 bulb lights would be enough to penetrate a 30" tall tank and if theres anything else I may need for an upgrade.
Thanks for reading this long post everyone!!!
Looking forward to your responses.
