I’m upgrading my 55g reef to a 120g and would like some suggestions on my setup. I will be transferring about 70pds of live rock and will be adding an additional 20pds of live rock along with 60pds of base rock. Currently I have about a 2-3 inch sand bed and I am thinking about only doing about ½ inch in the 120. I have a 10gal sump that will be making the move over and I am wanting to add a refugium. The refugium will have 4 inch sand bed along with live rock, rubble, snails, crabs, and some chaeto. I was thinking about using a mag 5 in the refugium and a mag 12 on a closed loop setup.(any recommendations on this would be helpful.). I will probably add a few powerheads to the main tank to help with the flow as well.
How would you all recommend that I setup the sump and the refigium? Should I run 2 separate overflows? What are you thoughts on the ½ inch sand bed in the main tank?
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
