Yup, I have a frogspawn in a 40 with 192 watts of pc. Seems to be doing quite well. ;)

cheap ones aren't usually the right ones, imo

I use SeaChem kits and love them. You could get by with their basic saltwater, calcium, and magnesium kits. These are available through premiumaquatics.com for reasonable prices.
