Not new to reef tanks but this route will be a first so i figured this would be the place to put it.
The goal: JBJ 28 bare bottom for mostly zoas maybe some LPS.
My plan for the setup is an AI Prime 16 for lighting.
Filtration: going to make just a filter pad holder, new pad twice a week. Then I'll use marine pure in some of the space in the back. As much as i can without causing flow issues. An AquaMaxx 1.5 skimmer, and a small carbon reactor for ROX 0.8 and some GFO if needed. UV on standby if needed. These will be my main filtration but will dose carbon with a dosing pump as well. Obviously monitoring an adjusting as needed.
Question is would this filtration solution get the job done? Kind of going for a space saving and low maintenance solution.
