My wife's been bugging me to get a flame angel since I've had a saltwater tank. I told her I won't have one in my reef tank so I decided to move all my corals into a 40br and turn my 90g into a flame angel and bta tank.

I've been collecting equipment for a few months now but still have a ways to go. Here's a list of equipment so far:
40br with bean animal overflow
SE Hamilton MH fixture
Lumatek select-a-watt MH ballast 250/400
400w Radion but I will probably switch over to a 250
3x 1.1ml BRS dosing pumps
MP10es
Jaebo WP25 powerhead
Sicce 3.0 return
200w heater

Still need:
sump
stand
plumbing
controller

I plan on going bare bottom and focus on SPS. I will have LPS and zoas as well. Not sure about fish but I'm thinking a pair of clowns, 6line wrasse, pajama cardinal pair and maybe something else.

look like a great start!
 
Thanks. I've been going back and forth about the stand. I really can't see paying $300+ on just a stand but I'm nervous about building a stand myself.
 
Picked up a third dosing pump for the tank and a SWC120 skimmer. Not sure if I'll stick with that skimmer. I also found a stand maker for a good price so as soon as I'm done traveling for work I'll order it.
 
Looking forward to watching this come together! :)
