Hello and welcome to my new thread:hallo: I am about to start a 65 gallon mixed reef tank. during this time im gonna keep my 29g fowlr going, then merge it with the 65g. word of warning this will for the next little while probably be a slow thread, because im not setting this up untill i have everything i need to do it. the 65g is 36" long, 24" tall and 18" deep. i will be re-using my 200watt jager heater. other than that i need to put together a equipment list. i have 2 hydor evo 750 power heads in my 29g that i will re-use later when the new tank is up and running. here is what i think i need.
skimmer...on that is rated for far beyond 65gallons and will fit in a 29g that is 18" tall.
power heads....have the evo's but think i could use a mp10 or something.
lights.....thinking of a 36" 6 bulb Tek HO T-5 fixture.
sump...would like to use my 29g(30"long x 18"tall x 12" deep) and what i need to make it a sump..ie filter socks, glass dividers, pump(what make and size).....
i have an ro/di unit already.
all equipment that i buy for this i plan on re-using later when i upgrade again, thats why i want the skimmer to be over powered.
any help with what i need to build this is very welcome
