Hi guys.
I recently got a used acrylic tank 48x24x10 with 2 corners drilled (1 3/4") in each for $120 which I thought was a good price. I'm going to be using it as a frag tank for zoas, palsy, other soft corals and LPS.
1. What would be the best size and type of sump for this size tank (approx 50 gallons)?
2. what size pump would i need?
3. what additional equipment would you recommend (skimmers, reactors, etc.)
4. For lighting, it was recommended to get HO T5s for growth with LED strips to bring out the colors . Would this be adequate?
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I don't want to screw this up and I'm relatively new to the hobby.
Thanks for your help and suggestions.
