As far as cycling goes I figured as much had to ask cuz it sounded like a cycled tank lol but at this point idk I'm just asking making sure I got some info before I go to the lfs Ty all for replying feel free to add to anything as it will be a little while before I do it as I kinda want a dog but we wil see

I would add the 10gal sump just to have increased water volume, easier to deal with fluctuations. just keep up on your Mg, Ca and alk. also dosing trace elements would be another thing to consider.

Biocube 29 are roughly 25 gals, not that much bigger. and amy people have sps in those.

With an ATO and regular water changes you should be fine?

I have a 20G high with 150W MH + 2x96W actinics. This is borderline overkill so your T%s should be just fine. I don't use a sump or skimmer, just water changes are fine. With a little calc/alk dosing my SPS grow like mad.

ok so im looking at 2 aqualife dual t5ho cuz thats what i can get near home, and a prizm deluxe. the skimmer says 18g for sps so if i add a 10g sump is it not good enough? if so ill find somthing else. and lights are 96w is that enough?

[Aquaria]

oh can u have a fuzzy dwarf lion in a 20g?

well prob not all info says 30 gallons so i guess its gobys

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.
