Greetings to everyone.
I'm new to this forum, I had a saltwater and freshwater aquarium 27 years ago and this changed a lot. I will start a combined Marine Aquarium and after being 3 months reading and watching videos and decided on the following equipment.

1. Glass aquarium 125 gls.
2. 40 gls. sump with 2ea. 4 inch 100 micron mesh
3.Apex Controller System WiFi with 4 probes temperature, salinity, orp and ph.
4. Vectra L2 dc return pump (3100 gpm)
5. 2 ea. IceCap 3K Gyre generation pump with interface module
6. 2 ea. Eshopps overflow box eclipse-L
7. Skimmer Bubble Magus Curv 7 elite
8. 3ea. Radion 15w G4 pro led Ecotech
9. AquaFX Octopus ro/di 200 GPD
10. Aqua Euro USA 1/4 Hp apex Titanium chiller

Comment and recommend that I need more. I would like to have everything you need before installing it.

Thanks in advance from Puerto Rico
 
Can you share what the reefing community is like in Puerto Rico? Is there a lot of ppl, is it hard to get stuff (both live and dry goods), etc
 
Definitely an auto top off.
All the other stuff you can pick up along the way. You’ll need small things like a quality glass cleaner, dosing pump if you’re adding coral, refugium light if your adding a fuge, ATO water container, 5 gallon buckets etc.
 
One 7" filter sock is way easier to clean than one or two 4" socks.
I ‘m thinking instead of socks use Klir filter What do you think.

Hi JOSE,
There are many people in the hobby. You get almost everything, there are several stores specialized in marine. Both are achieved.
 
An ato, rock, sand, possible reactors, doser or ca reactor, I’m sure there is more
What glass cleaner do you recommend
I have on the list pending purchase
1. Neptune Systems DOS and DDR dosing system combo
2. Optical level Neptune
3. Automatic feeding Neptune
4. Dry and live rock, dry sand
5. LED grow light full spectrum for sump
6. Ca reactor Bubble Magus
