So as i stated in a post yesterday, I just ordered me up a 40 gallon breeder tank and stand

It was mentioned that PC bulbs are too weak, but I remember having those on our highschool tank. what are some other good ideas for lighting especially that maybe wont cost a fortune?

I also have an empty 29 gallon and an empty 15 gallon sitting at my parents house that I would maybe like to do something with. Any ideas? I keep coming across the word refugeum but I don't know exactly what it is. but maybe this is an option for one of the tanks?

I dont know if i necessarily want to use all three tanks, especially right away, but I think it would be cool to have the main (40 gallon) and a secondary tank -- i tihnk i mentioned that yesterday.

Is there any recommended books I could buy? I bought Reef Aquarium Fishes by Scott W. Michael and The New Marine Aquarium by Michael S. Paletta.

Thanks guys..
