Hello, I'm moving up from a WB 20g cube to their Frag 125 and would like advice while doing research for my build. The tank is 48 x 25 x 16

Here's my current list (work-in-progress) and questions at the bottom.


Goal: LPS, Zoas, "easier" SPS (Psammocora, Stylos, nothing more than 200 par)


Return Pump: Vectra S2 - Mobius Ready DC Return Pump (1400 GPH)
Filter: ClariSea SK-3000 Gen 3 Automatic Filter System
Skimmer: Quantum 160 Protein Skimmer
Powerheads: (2) VorTech MP40mQD - Mobius Ready QuietDrive Propeller Pump
Lights: (2) Radion XR30 G6 Blue LED Light Fixture
Controller: (Owned) Neptune Apex


I'm open to any and all suggestions as I'm still researching this all. If any of this is way overpriced, not compatible, high failure, won't fit, etc, please be my extra sets of eyes and let me know

1) The lighting may certainly be overkill. I'd like to stay Ecotech. I chose XR30s because someday I may (BIG maybe) wish to try more difficult/demanding SPS

2) I can't find the Deltec 600i in the US

3) Vectra or COR15 or another suggestion? Haven't researched these yet. I do have an Apex.

Are the return Pump and skimmer appropriate size for this tank? This is my first large SW tank (have done smaller SW tanks and tons of FW tanks).
