The skimmer is junk, so you'll need to budget to replace it. I've replaced it with a Tunze 9002 that works well. The lighting is decent for soft corals and LPS, but I wouldn't try it on SPS, or high light demand clams or anemones. With how much the system costs, and the fact you need to upgrade the skimmer and add extra circulation, I personally would have went with something different. It does give a nice finished look though, you just have to live with the limitations of the system.
