I just picked up a planet aquariums 65 all in one and thought it would be great, the pumps were unfortunately burnt up since they let it run dry but I mostly bought it for the lighting and powerheads which are a set of two xr15 g6 blue with hms mounts and two mp10s it also came with several other goodies that added value. I bought two of the smallest jebao controllable pumps available and at the lowest power they're still too much, I'm also sitting on a oceanic 144 half circle that would be run perfectly by the two 520 max gph pumps. I'm into mixed reefs and I know I couldn't do much down low if I were to do this but how does everyone think xr15s would run a 144, it's about 25+ inches deep. And it might be too thick to use the mp10s so they might get repurposed or resold, my Nero 3's should apparently handle the thickness so I'll probably just trade those out. Really the only thing that I'm lacking is a sump and it seems straightforward enough to build one, or find a decent used one for a reasonable price. Nobody in the house is helping me decide on what to do but it seems pretty obvious to me, full send always right?
