Okay, my tank is new. I have no plans to put any corals in the tank for another 10 or 12 months, however..... I mentioned to one of my sisters that my long term plan was to add a few select corals to my tank in time. I told her I didn't have the right equipment for corals at this point. So...... she mentioned it to my other sister, who talks to my father...etc... now everyone is asking me what kind of equipment I would like to put on my Christmas list!
I know the tank needs to mature and I need to learn a lot. That's a given. Unfortunately time can't go on my list. So what do I need to have for corals? Stuff I don't already have. My tank and equipment list is as follows:
90 gallon, one return drilled
125 lbs live rock
110 lbs of sand, about 2 1/2" deep
2 Koralia 750 gph heads
Sicce 3.0, 714 GPH pump
Eshoppes 120 skimmer
30"x18"x11" (water depth) sump with 10 lbs live rock
1, 48" stunner 2:1 white/blue LED strip. 12,000k
1, 12" stunner blue LED strip. ????K
1, 12" stunner 1:1 white/magenta LED strip. ????k
1 Coralife 48" T5 dual lamp, 10,000k/6700k
JBJ auto top off
5 stage RODI unit
What would I need to ADD to bring it up to coral quality? Sorry about the lighting info. Its not something I am very good at keeping track of. I know I currently need another power head. So what should I add to my wish list? Likely, unless it will do my fish any good, it will simply gather dust for nearly a year!
