ogbeka August 18, 2018 Share August 18, 2018 Hi Guys, As stated, I have been out of the hobby for a while (approx. 12 years) and I am looking to get back with a vengeance. I have space to set up 40x20x24in tank. I plan to make it a mixed lps, softie tank. I'm personally not into SPS but my wife might want to cram an acro or a clam in there. I already noticed that, although reefing is basically the same as 10years ago, there are some technological and price breakthroughs to be had. My main concerns tight now are as follows: 1. Lighting. I plan on going LED but it's all new to me. I am planning on LPS and maybe a forced SPS or clam. Seems LED would be a fit but I would appreciate any recommendations. AI's seem like a good fit but how many? 2. Recommendations on tank builders in the area. I plan on having internal-corner overflow. Probably Durso but open to suggestions considering the size of my build. 3. I will probably build my own stand with 2x4's and IKEA panels for a finish. Do you guys recommend plywood top and bottom? All ideas are welcome!!!! Thanks in advance!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Lazar August 18, 2018 Share August 18, 2018 I plan on having internal-corner overflow. Probably Durso but open to suggestions considering the size of my build. First of all, welcome back! Don't do a Durso. A "beananimal" is far superior. You should also consider doing a low-profile inside/outside overflow box like the Shadow instead of a corner overflow box.
