![]() Ok people, i need some advice!
I am going to be firing up my oceanic 58 gallon with over flow trickle filter, sump, and skimmer(will need to upgrade sooner than later), in the next few weeks and need some help picking out equipment. For lighting i'm running 1x 400W Halide+2x 65WPC Actinics. As fars as lighting and filtration go im more than covered for now. Before when i had my reef tank set up i did not get into the higher end equipment and tried to diy pretty much everything which is great but some things are just better bought off of the shelf. I've been looking at the Profilux III EX soon to come out but am unsure of what wave makers i need to use along side of it. The Tunze seem way to pricy but i'm not sure if there are any more sensible sustitutions i can make as the controller is already $700. I want to stay with the controller i mentioned so that later on down the road i am not restricted by a less comprehensive unit......... Main Questions are: 1) What kind of wave makers should i run 2) How many 3) And what level of flow will do the trick withou overkill Secondary: 1) In the future what are the most cost effective Calcium Reactors or other Accessories that would help ensure all of my basis are covered in a quick and efficient way. As i said, my first tank was a bit of a "guess and go" that luckily worked very well but i think i'm ready to step it up this time and get more involved on the "techy" side of Marine tanks....... Opinions or ideas are very welcome! Thanks, Ryan |
