Hi everyone. I'm newish to this forum. I had a Red Sea Reefer that turned out to be a big headache so I sold it and have not had an aquarium for 2 years. I just purchased, online, a Waterbox Infinia 230.6. I'm very excited to get it. I just ordered the stand, tank, plumbing and sump. I'm hoping to get some good advice on what return pump, skimmer, lighting, heater, and roller mat to get. My understanding is that the filter sock area pops out to accommodate the roller pad. I've always had FOWLER tanks and am leaning that way again, but would like to have appropriate lighting if I change my mind. Money is not really an obstacle, so if anyone has advice on brands/models for these items please let me know. I'd be very grateful! BTW, I'm leaning towards the maxspect skimmer after researching, but have always loved octopus. Anyway, please let me know your thoughts!

Scott

Welcome aboard, that sounds like a nice setup. I have been out of the loop around 12 years so others will have to pitch in on modern day options.
