Good qualtiy skimmer, RO/DI unit if you don't already have one, and of course depending on your lighting you might want to upgrade

I was referring to upgrading your lighting depending how indepth your going to get into corals......With MH's you will use more energy and increase heat a bit depending on your canopy situation and such. If you don't want the expense of MH's I would at least upgrade the PC's to T5's. IMO much better light output. What type of skimmer are you running currently?
