I liked my simple 20g sps tank better than my 30g w/sump tank. It was easy to care for. Just water changes, no skimmer. Hang on the back AC 110 filter. I did use one of my MP 20,s for current but its easy to provide current in a 20g. The 110 even did a good chunk of that.

I did put a lot of rock in it though, a personal preference. My 4 bulb SWC T-5 unit provided more than enough light, as the corals grew good but they all browned out. I believe that to be because only one actinic was used and 3 cheaper 10K bulbs. With the proper bulbs, its my opinion the colours would have been better but would have to do it first to see.
