Hello fellow reefers! So I have finally determined that a 40 gal breeder frag tank will probably be best for my space and I'm going to have a 20 long sump with this. My LFS recommended an:

- Eshopps overflow box
- sicce 2.0 return pump
- bubble magnus ES 5 (though I can't find this model)
- 2 kessil A80s OR 2 Kessil A160s
- and two power heads

I'm thinking a small eclipse eshopps overflow will be optimal for me, but that's all I've somewhat chosen at this point. I like second and third opinions top compare to. So that being said. What would you recommend? Is this a good equipment collection?

Looks like a good plan to me.

Any doser will do.. As far as lighting the A80 might be too small for the setup.
I'm really struggling with the lighting part of this. I thought Kessil originally as well, but now I'm seeing good reviews for AI Prime, the black boxes and a few there's.. Lighting is difficult!
