Alright since I have decided on the biocube as the tank for my build, I have decided that I will use roughly 25 lbs. of live sand, and up to 40 lbs. of dry rock, (have over 150 lbs. to choose from, old tank). I will have 2 hydor koralia 240s (with a wave-maker) , a protein skimmer, and a U.v. sterilizer. I think I will need to upgrade the lighting in order to possibly house an anemone and some LPS. I would like to have LED lighting but would like to keep the cost down as much as possible but would also like to have the ability to have an anemone and LPS.
If there is something that I am missing that is needed or something that I could improve on (ie. lighting ) I would love suggestions, thanks.
