Picked up a new to me frag tank yesterday! Dimensions are 4'X4'X16"tall. My plan is to start growing out in garage mainly zoas and lps. I've got a Reef Octopus NW 150, Arctica 1/3 hp chiller, mag 12 so far. Already has 4 48" retro t5's and have a 8 bulb TEK fixture lined up.
Couple questions for the people with experience in t5's...Do you think 12 bulbs is too much? Can I get away with just the tek fixture?
Also, was thinking about 2 40 Breeders underneath. 1 for all live rock and sand and the other to overflow into for skimmer and return or vice versa. Would love to do a custom acrylic sump but not sure if i wanna spend the coin
Thanks for everyones help and input!
