Hi, I'm planning on buying a WATERBOX 50-gallon tank. Any suggestions on which lights to buy, wavemakers, and etc.
 
Congrats on the new tank!
 
What are your long term plans for the tank? LPS, SPS?
Do you want to spend for top of the line equipment?

No, I'm on a budget for about 3000-4000 for just the tank equipment. I'm looking to keep LPS, and some soft corals. And definitely an anemone.

I already have an AI prime HD for my nano, so I might buy a another one of those.
 
Do a search here on R2R for "Waterbox AIO". With that budget you have a ton of options.
Don't skimp on light, flow or ATO.
If you're not going SPS dominate you really don't need dosing pumps or a controller.
