Current build:
I use two HOB filters, an internal skimmer, a hob chaeto refugium, 2 hydor powerheads, and 2 ai hydra 26 lights.

Future Improvements:
1. Maxspect gyre power head
2. Replace out HOB equipment with sump
3. Replace internal skimmer with Tunze Skimmer

Any further recommendations would be appreciated, thanks for reading!

Just posting an update for the tunze skimmer giveaway (Bonus#1)

Would like to win skimmer so that I can remove my internal skimmer that is taking up space in my tank.

Filtration equipment:
Tetra Whisper 60 HOB
Marineland Penquin 30-50 HOB
Hydor Internal Nano Skimmer 48-65
Nano Hydor Powerhead 545 gph
2x AI Hydra 26
 
Looking good! I would consider an auto top off (ATO) as well. A simple way to add to your system’s stability.

Your tank it's coming along nicely.

+1 ATO would be a great addition.
 
Hi benha. Checking in with you on your tank build. Looks like you are off to a good start. How are things going now? Just myself updated my tank build.
