Due to saving for a new house I am probably a year away from this build but i would still like to get everyone's feedback on the equipment that I am looking at so far. Let me know if you think the set up will work well, if certain parts are overkill, or if I haven't included enough. The only thing that I am pretty stuck on is the actual aquarium. Ideally I want this aquarium to be able to host SPS, LPS, softies and Anemones
Aquarium:
Marineland 93 gallon frameless cube 30X30X24 with built in overflow (http://************.com/2013/02/19/marineland-frameless-cube-aquariums-norm-upg/)
Sump/Fuge:
Trigger systems Ruby36s
Return pump:
Due to location of equipment this will probably be the last thing that I will figure out since I plan to host filtration in separate room or closet.
Protein Skimmer:
AquaC EV240 powered by a mag drive 18
Wave pumps:
2x Ecotech MP40 (is this overkill for 93 gallons)
Lighting:
I am set on using LED, I am sold on the longevity of the systems. The three systems that I'm looking at are using two Maxspect R420r, three Kessil 350w or two ecotech radion. would really like comments on which set up people would prefer.
Controller:
I have been looking at the reef keeper elite. I like that it will integrate with most of the equipment. My biggest priority would really go to whoever has the best smartphone application by this next year. i would love to be able to change my lighting, turn pumps on or off and check on my tank from my phone.
