    I agree w pegasus. You don't need it no. None of my 3 tanks are drilled. However the new tank iam getting will be. Its just a cleaner look. Personal preference tho

    sumps.

    Excellent. Thanks for the info. The stand will have wiggle room so I can figure that out hopefully lol. Yea the price jump after a 125 is crazy. Yet 180 to a 220 minimal. You have an excellent memory to remember I have a unicorn. He is still small, about 5-6". The naso and yellow tho are...

    sumps.

    The plan is 125 or bigger. Issue being bigger isn't much bigger. Even a 180 only has a few more inches here or there. The stand will be built so I can make room , a 55 may fit more easily. It will most likely be fowlr. I'am just dipping into corals, so they will stay in my smaller tank. My fish...

    sumps.

    Thank you all for the info. The plan is to go w a pre drilled corner over flow tank. I was thinking a 40b as a sump. Just not sure how it would fit under the stand. Excellent points about it over flowing lol. Also debating on duel corner, or single. I'am thinking double is the best.

    Idk the wattage of the ones I saw. After I heard $210 I blacked out lol

    coralife?

    There ok for coral. There are better leds out there. Kessil makes nice ones but your looking at $200 per light. For say a 4ft tank you would need 3-4. Most softies will do fine w a good led. Sps, thats a diff story. The cheap chinese leds as there called, have very high output. Good for most...

    My own newbie thread

    By fire goby do u mean fire fish? If so there not gobies, there dart fish. I have 2 tanks w 2 dif gobies. I have a golden sleeper headed (sand sifter) w a clown goby. No issues. I have a yellow watchman that lives in the same cave w a fire fish. No issues. Gobies is a loosely used term. Even...

    fish stocking ? - Do I have too much?

    Wrasse aside your at your limit. Now I say that bc yes it will need a bigger tank. 40 or 60? Always go bigger, yet 60 isn't that big for sw. It will increase your fish capacity tho
