WTB Reef Setup

What kind of budget are you trying to stay within? There are countless options up to a 100g so it depends. You could piece together a used system to fit your needs or go with something like a Red Sea Reefer 350 (90g) that has everything basically ready to go. You would still need lights, heater, return pump, and a skimmer... But you get the point.

That is a really good questions. I guess I am trying to stay in the $500 range. It really depends on what I can find. I have been looking at used systems as they are typically priced way below retail. I have been in negotiations with the Mrs. on space, so I was looking small at first but I have been moving up in size.

I believe this CL ad is for 2 AI Hydra lights, seems like a decent deal if it comes with the controller as well.

I have a 55gallon side drilled with a upper overflow and a homemade stand that's decent and would definitely get you started, also have a 10 or 15 gallon wet/dry sump and heaters

I also have a 20g long that's sump quality you could easily turn into a sump

I decided to go with Nightstar's 80 gallon rimless. I will start a new thread, but I need a sump, skimmer, return pump and a 48" t5 to supplement Metal Halide. PM me if you have anything budget friendly
