I recently got a waterbox 20 with tons of equipment for free I’m considering making it a sps dominant system . It came with a ai prime light live rock tunze nano protein skimmer reef and roll roller mat and lots of other extras . Ai Nero 3 , orbit , and axis . I’m pretty confident I have the tools to provide enough flow and different methods of filtration, down the line I’ll probably get a dosing pump also so recommendations for that are welcome too lol . I already have 3other tanks running (60 breeder LPs, Fluval Evo 13.5 zoa dominated , 6.8 gallon softies and macro algae ) and this one will make four.

Will the ai prime be enough to run a full sps tank ? Since I got all this stuff for free I don’t mind spending some extra on a better light if need be .

I’m not sold on the scape yet but figure how it is now offers a lot of room for colonies to grow out .

I may trade the orbit for another Nero 3 just for more randomness in the flow patterns but undecided. I have some montis in my Evo and 60 breeder but no acros or any other sps so help a brother out lol
