I am upgrading my tank to a 150 and was looking to start some soft corals. I also was looking to add a queen or emperor but have seen that they are not reef safe. Are there any angels that are??

I am about to set up a 150 gal 6' tank. 72 long x 24 wide x 20 high. Anyhow, from trusted sources it seems like I should go with a 250w mh system with t5 actnic support. I currently only have a fowlr but am interested in adding soft corals and some clams. My question is this... What is a...
I listed before that I have a mag 24 that was possibly too big for my 55 gallon sump. Since it probably is how about using it for my closed loop system? The tank is a 6' 150 gallon setup. Would this pump be too much flow for this also? I am not sure what the goal water movement would be...
Thanks for the honesty!! I was doing a little research overnight and found the same thing. I am new to doing corals so it is all a learning thing for me..
K, just measured and the tank is 20 high but the canopy is only 12" high. As far as corals, I really am not sure what kind I want but do want to be as flexible as possible. So, would the 400 be too much for softies or do they need more light?
I need to get my hands on a Mag 12. I currently have a mag 24(never used) that I think is going to be too much for my 150. Sooo, I am either looking to buy a mag 12 or trade my mag 24 for it and anything really.
thanks
Hey, I am setting up a 150 gal 6 ft tank. I dont have the canopy completly built yet. I have never used these lights b4 but it would be for a 20" high tank. Would 400 be too much? and how about turning the pendants? Any info and advice would be great. I work in Sweedsboro so if this works...

Is this only happening here???
How about the fact they are tacking on even more and trying to slide it under the radar. Around here the stations have started the higher price for credit then cash again. I have not seen that in like 15 years. I unfortunately didnt notice it until I used my debit card and paid what I thought...
Ok, so I think that doing a trade down for my purpose would make the most sense. My sump really will not have any distance to travel so a 12 might be my best bet.
Thanks for the help!!
