So I'm buying and adding as I go. We are moving in two weeks and I won't fill the tank up till then. Also want to repaint the stand and maybe update the hardware.
Right now it's the 40B, Lid, AC110 HOB and a 425GPH Nano Sicce Powerhead. I plan on adding a HOB Skimmer once I'm cycled and actually have a bioload to worry about. Still really confused on which one I want but I feel I have a short list from reading on here. REEF octopus, Eshopps, Aquamaxx 1.5 are in the running at this time. Need one more Powerhead and I'm not sure which to get.
It's going to be Fowlr for at least 6 months so maybe I can get away with one powerhead for the time being. But a local guy has live rock for really reasonable prices so I'll add 40lbs at minimum and a 1-2" CaribSea substrate . Hope to have it up and cycling in 3-4 so I can add fish around October/November. I'm only adding a pair of clowns at that point and will wait another month or two before adding anything else.
Lighting will be something I take my time deciding on what to get. I plan on easy/simple corals mainly for some color and motion. So from what I've seen a really high end light isn't as crucial but I want to buy once cry once in case I want to upgrade.
So here's to the fall and the fun to follow .
