Is this enough

[danny zubot]

I agree with "no bio-balls". Live rock rubble might end up being cheeper, and they work way better. Acros will be a tough coral to keep happy under 48 watts of T5's, but yu could always try it out. If yu use the hang on filter, don't put a spong in it, just run it with carbon to help filtration. Lastly, think about getting a protien skimmer. For your size of system a small one shouldn't be too expensive.

The total watts of light will be 96w because I will be using two T5 fixtures not one, so the two T5 fixtures will be 96w in total with 4x 24w T5 bulbs. How many watts would you advise for deepwater acros? Sorry for the confusion and thanks for the replys.

I already have the hang on filter from my freshwater tank. So I was going to use that instead of a powerhead and I already have the bioballs there were extras I didn't need.

96 watt t5s could do the trick. What else do you have for flow other than the hang on filter? Acros require decent flow so a power head would probably be required in the near future.

When I was thinking the 264gph return pump would be all the flow I need plus the hang on filter which is ment for 60 gllon aquarium.
