So I just got the ok from my parents for a 250 as long as I can pay/trade for everything. (more trade) I've got a couple questions because I want to do it right and not redo anything.

game plan. 250 tank (5'x3'x27"). 120 frag tank. 55 fuge. return will be a dart. 5 vortechs. maybe surges. geo 618 calcium reactor. 2 400 watt radiums. lots of the powerbrite led's!

1.for skimmer I'm looking at an ORCA 200 or 250 if I can afford it at the time. big enough? If I can find a deal on a bubble king then that will be the way I go pending price.

2.how big of a chiller will I need? will 1/3 be big enough? or do I need to look into going bigger?

3.I'll be fine to keep a couple (5-8) tangs in a 250 correct? thats one of the main reasons I want a big tank!!!

woo hoo I'm excited!
