I have a CADE REEF 450 S2/M coming in the next few days (won it through the SARK givaway on fb…) Was wondering if anyone has one yet? I know it’s fairly new… What kind of lighting would you use on it? It already comes with the pump & skimmer. I’m probably going to do a few small fish & mixed corals. But still deciding…

I just set up my CADE 450S2/M. Its a awesome tank, but with its design it is somewhat difficult to balance the return pump sump and the display tank. I am 100% new to reef tanks, but the ATO sump is a awesome! Also, the Skimmer "holder" is pretty flimsy and is very easy to break, so I would be extra careful with it.

Looks pretty sweet looking! I have mine up & running & so far it was easy to adjust the return. I just need to get a better light because I have my old light from my Red Sea max 130 above it for now. Reason being I had to remove all my rbta’s from my 34 gallon because they were getting so big & trying to kill my other corals

What equipment are you using for the ATO feature?
