ok guys and gals. i'm starting up my 210 build again. at one time this tank was running. never had flow right. so i moved everything to an AGA 90 and decided to start over.
so that said, here's what Ive got to work with.
210 AGA dual overflow 6' x 2' x 30" (with stand and canopy. haven't decided if i'm going to use them or not.)
70 truview sump/fudge ( already has bubble traps put in it. ) still working on this
3 x 400watt 20k SE (i only have 2 laminar mini reflector hoods) wondering if i can get away with just 2 or should i buy another mini
coralife pc, moon led all in one 36" for sump or a 36" t-5 set. haven't decided which way to go on this yet.
about 200lbs live rock of various types (spread across 3 tanks at the moment till i get this thing done )
20 truview (i'm looking to making this a surge tank)
mag 15 pump
mag 7 pump
i have mixed reef corals ( softies, LPS, SPS )
at this stage i'm in the middle of building the sump/fudge.
could use some food for thought on the whole surge tank idea. making it wont be hard. (standard carlson design) just haven't decided how to incorporate this.
should i be having it sweep in one direction across the whole tank, drop through the middle and sweep in two directions.
thanks in advanced for and help and or idea on best practices on how to do this.
