Greetings and Salutations!

Long time fishkeeper (30 years)
Looking to make the jump to salt.
I've acquired a 65g,
Drilled and plumbed it myself,
15g sump
Plan is to do a NSA annenome clownfish harrem tank.

Gotta aquire some hardware before I take the leap,
Plan is a filter roller filter
Small protein skimmer
2x heaters
Large as I can make it refugium.
I have 2x 400gph pumps underneath
(So maybe 150g at 3' lift plus plumbing)
*So roughly 5 times turnover for filtration*
Plan for wavemaker is 2x icecap gyre
Lights kessil (I currently have an a80 & a150 tune blues I've picked up) will I think need 1 more maybe a80, a160 if I can spring for it.

Cheers
