New set up, need advice

Sounds awesome!

Many enthusiast are going with LED fixtures due to heat and cost effectiveness. Matter of preference....

As for wavemakers and pumps, Jebao is making some very affordable and controllable pumps (DC versions) and wavemakers (wp40s or wp60s) which would suit your system....

Skimmer is a matter of choice as they virtually do the same thing, (a redundant product imo) but properly rated for bio-load and system specs.... there are even DC powered skimmers now... (SkimmerKing) would know volumes in this department...

If you are going big, or go home kinda route....ECOTECH Radions with pumps and controller seem to be the way to go. Neptune controller. RO/DI unit, water change systems, dosing pumps, self cleaning skimmer cups...all depends on the budget!!
Good Luck
