I've had 2 small FOWLR before when I was younger but both did not last very long due to lack of research and patience. Now years later I'd like to attempt a reef tank the proper way. I came across a used 130 gal aquarium w stand. Was told it was 150 but calculations are 72L 22W 19H so I believe its 130. I have all of the old rock soaking in 10% bleach right now. My goal is to make the tank as close to a ULM that I can. I have an old 39 gal tank I would like to make into a sump. But just starting out what really are the essentials I need?
1. I'd like to run a refugium but will I also need to run a skimmer? (Recommendations)
2. What other filtration is recommended?
3. Pump should handle 1300 GPH I believe any recommendations?
any other info you would like to add would greatly appreciated. I'd like to take my time and do it the correct way. 3rd times the charm
Thanks!
