im looking to start a new 30 gallon aquarium I have been obsessed with FW plants and invertebrates and think that im ready for a coral tank. Anyways i would like to eventually convert my tanks filtration to a refugium but will be using a rena xp2 filter and then might use a cpr hang on back protien skimmer? is this adequate? also i want to have anemone and hammer corals among other things and just need help getting the basics down. i under stand cycling and will buy 30-35 plus live rock. also for circulation i will be using 3-4 power heads. koralia to be specific im thinking 2 smaller ones and 2 larger ones. also will be using deep sand beds to aid in filtration. JUst need lots of input regarding products to buy. I want to start to get and inventory shopping list to prepare for my tank.I NEED help would love some reviews on protien skimmers so i can just invest in one NICE ONE that will survive. also what about the NPX Bioplastics (Biopellets) With Phosban Reactor & MaxiJet 1200 Pump
BioPellet Filters? i might have to purchase it.
