I would look into a 4 bulb T5 setup, TEK and aquactnics are the best, nova might be fine with the corals you listed with good placement. It is correct that the feather dusters don't need light but the others you listed do, not sure about flame scallops.

I am using a Euro-reef CS-8 i think (it's the older version of the RS-180) Here's a drawing of what I came up with, I'm open to suggestions.

I use a maxi-jet 900 to mix mine

I'm working on setting up a 180 gallon RR tank, but this is the first time I've used a sump. I have a 75 gal drilled on the end for a sequence reeflo dart return pump, but need some help laying it out, it's going to be a sump/fuge. I was thinking have the drain -> skimmer -> fuge -> return...

my LFS charges 50 cents/gal RO/Di and $1.00/gal premixed Tropic Marin Pro salt.

Just put the frags in and let them spread

My favorite flavor is whatever is in my freezer.

Nice tank! Awesome rockwork.

If the T5 has individual reflectors it will put a lot more light in the tank then a PC fixture, T5's are also more efficient to run but are more expensive to buy if you get a good setup.

I'm 18, not as young as some of you, but definitely not old either.

I would say the 400W is a little much but idk. I would probably go with 3 250w myself.

I'm not getting anything for them, gotta save up so I can have the 180 finished for next year.

Because certain corals such as zoanthids and palythoas are toxic. Some to the point that the smallest amount getting in your blood stream can be deadly. Reefkprz has a thread about it if you want to read up on it.

I'm with reefkprz on this one.

right and no.
