Ok well im in the process of getting it going, so far i have the tank and picking up my 29 gallon sump soon.

So i have a few questions about what equipment to get.

What would be a good In Sump skimmer to get?
What lighting should i get? Im going to plan mostly zoas, but also want to move my clam and SPS in there

So thats all im in need for right now
thanks

I would say go T5's for the light. As far as a good skimmer... well I guess that all depends on what your budget is.

T-5's would be cool, what one would be good? Im thinkin the 6 bulb Nova Extreme Pro

I would like to keep skimmer cost under $200 if possible for a good one
 
For a decent low end skimmer look into the ASM's. Whith a gate valve mod they are not too bad.

I think that T5 would be good. THat's the one with the individual reflectors correct?
 
I have a used Tunze in that price range, 180.00 including shipping. In perfect condition with new mounting hardware. Its a tiny skimmer that is able to handle a large water volume.
Model Number: DOC Skimmer 9210
It retails for around $400.00
