What’s up y’all? Hey guys and gals, I’m Mike and new to R2R. Im currently running a non-drilled B.S. aqueon 75g mixed Reef for over two years. I woke up one day and decided to go saltwater, rushed it a little, made some mistakes (obviously), and had some success too. I have recently made friends with a glass guy who’s going to build me a new tank. 48x32x24 I believe it’s around 160g. So here’s the thing, I want a pristine set up this time. I’ve researched a lot, I’ve seen all the “basic rules of thumbs” but I’m asking you guys and gals for some help and specifics. Mostly on overflows and returns. I realize a lot of it is personal preference. I’m asking for some help on specific flow rate numbers. Please be specific and make it idiot proof. Well, because I’m an idiot!!! Thank you in advance

Mike
