I'm still a little ways out on setting up my 180g reef (killing me, everything is in the garage)... But I can't look at this smaller tank anymore without actually doing something with it and figured I should play around with a smaller tank before setting the big guy up. Just went to LFS and picked up a compact 36inch 96 watt dual bulb with moon lights, is this enough for a Q tank, pretty much a fish only tank. I was going to underplumb the 75g tank but decided to skip the hassel, no overflow... I'm going to go ahead with 2" sand bed, LR and dual canisters. The guy at TLFS said I should run carbon in one canister and filter media in the other, I'm really confused as to what to use the canisters for....How much live rock to start? I think I've got my water turnover just about right with power heads and canisters.
