I dunno if I would trust that pond pump alot of things like that have non stainless steel screws and will rust in saltwater make sure it is safe for salt water

The person before me had used it in a saltwater tank as back up and there were no ill effects. Ok. I need advice on hardy fish and corals good for starters.

If you want shrimp, do not get a longnose hawkfish.

i finally got around to measuring the tanks. their both the same so here it is.
Length: 48"
Height: 16.5"
Width: 20"
Thickness of glass: 2cm

Now do you know if it would be able to support the tank. The back and sides are taller than the rest on both tanks and i'm going to get them cut. Again any suggestions

The weight of the full aquarium will squash the sump, do not place it on top of the sump. Put it on a stand that the sump can fit inside. You may want to consider getting a smaller sump so you don't have get such a big skimmer, and also so it will fit into a standard stand.

Ok for my list of supplies for my aquarium i N-need/H-have

N-Euro Reef RS100

N-AquaFX Barracuda 4 stage RO/DI

N-TDS meter

N-Maxi-Jet 1200

N-Lights

N-Kent Liquid Calcium

N-SeaChem Reef Buffer

N-Epsom Salt

Anything i'm missing? For my sump the dimensions are 48x20x16.5. I want the biggest refugium possible so how far should the bubble trap be from the edges and all that?
