I have been asking questions on this and one other form and everyone has been very helpful thank you all for that first of all.
Im moving in about a month or so and will start slow but put together a reef tank. I want 2 plan this out before i jump into it.
first of all i got a four gallon with a snail, hermit crabs, and a green crab. I plan on using it to start to seed a tank while order live rock and cure it. I m gona set up 55 gal diamond shape corner tank. The dementions are front to back 25", corner to corner 32", and 24" high.

1. i def want some easy corals like zoas, polyps, lethers etc but fish are more of priority 2 me
2. I found out skimmers,powerheads etc. but i want a good LED hanging pendent that wont totaly break my pocket and will light the odd dimensions of this tank
3. The space for a sump to fit is tight but ill make it work, small without a refugim or cut a space out of the back of stand and make bigger sump.
4. since im intrested in fish and there behavior i want goby/shrimp combo, clown/aneome inverts etc.. but would like a few bigger show/center piece fish.

So what pendent LED should i go for not real expensive and complex, and what show fish and how many can i put in this tank.

thanks
