GDAY all the way from Australia!! Looking at starting up my first mixed reef tank in the coming weeks after months and months of research and following. Undecided on a tank as i have 3 options... Aqua one reefsys 255, Red sea reefer 250 and the Waterbox 100.3??? Heard and seen alot regarding the red sea and Waterbox. Well if anyone has any points or tips in tank choice that be great, till then look forward to talking and sharing tips will all.

Morning all or evening, depends on what part of the world your in. 10pm down under at the moment.

What test kits or test would I really need for a cycle process? Thinking the red sea pack is an overkill.. correct me if I'm wrong.
