Could really use some feedback as to whether I have missed something or not! Will be doing RO/DI and have a source for rocks and sand already. The tank will be all types of corals and fish from Indo-Pacific area. So, with that said, here is the equipment I am planning on using:

Tunze Master DOC Protein Skimmer 9410.000
Tunze Hydrofoamer Silence Pump 9430.040

Two Little Fishes GFO Phosban Reactor 550 w/Cobalt Aquatics MJ1200 Pump

Tunze Osmolator Universal 3155 ATO

GHL Dosing Pump

Two Little Fishes KW Reactor 300 w/Cobalt Aquatics MJ1200 Pump

2 - ViaAqua Titanium 300 Watt Heaters

2 - ECO Tech Marine Radion XR 30W (Gen. 2) - should it be 3?

Neptune Systems Apex Aqua Controller w/ pH Probe
LED and Pumps Control Module VDM
Wireless Expansion Module WXM
Lunar Simulation Module & Lunar LED String
Salinity Module PM2
I/O Breakout Box

Tunze Silence Electronic Recirculation Pump 1073.05

ESHOPPS Refugium R-300, 2nd generation

2 - Tunze Turbelle Sream 6105 Controllable
Tunze Multicontroller 7096

180 Gal Tank (reef ready with two overflows and returns), with stand and canopy

Comments appreciated.

Skip the Eshopps and build a proper 3 chamber sump using a 40B. They are easy to build in a day and cost well under $100. What lighting are you going with?

BTW: What are you using for a return pump? I'd suggest an Eheim 1262.
