P.s
I have a 55gallon tank and 29 gal QT set up for a little under a year, successfully have corals, live sand, fish, and crustaceans.

A lot of people choose either synergy or myreefcreations sumps due to their success and quality and good reviews. A good skimmer like most reef octopus, vertex, or aquamaxx skimmers are what a lot of reefers use such as myself. Lighting would be the top 3 Led companies. Ecotech marine radions, aqua illumination hydra HDs, and Kessils. Circulation pumps also are Ecotech marine. Basically if you want the best of the best Ecotech marine is the top of the line stuff. Heaters would be fluval E series. My favorite. Return pumps vectra from Ecotech marine or danner mag drive.

Thank you so much
 
Gonna add, determine your end goal for the tank. One can spend thousands of dollars on equipment that isn't needed. Build your equipment to the end goal of your tank. You can always upgrade later and sell off some stuff too.

That's something I think people overlook when deciding, what are your goals, these will change with time.
