I took down my old system, trying to start from sctrach, I'm trying to buy all the equipment I can possibly buy to make this
Tank a high tech aquarium system.
So far I have:

29G w/HOB single overflow , 10G refugium/sump , MH lighting 175 coralife 14k bulb built in to the canopy , Coralife skimmer 65, Return pump, 2 koralia powerheads, refug light,25lb of LIVE ROCK, live sand, bio pellet reactor, Neptune aquacontroller apex jr

I still need an auto-top off, if I can find a cheap one
I need ideas for what else I need

After much delay (broken foot) I finally got it up and running. Thanks steven for the LEDs.
Im still waiting for an mp10, the rockwork isnt final.
Has anybody tried Dr. tims one and only nitrifying bacteria because I have
Dry rock and I dont want to wait a really long time.

I was perusing CL and came across this.

Looks like someone is taking your pics from the forum, and mixing them with some other tanks pics, to make up an Ad for a tank.

Got a new mp10,it is awsome! I got all the detritus up and my sandbed looks really clean, also it helped eliminate a cyano problem most likely caused by dead spots on the sandbed, and my corals have opened up so much now, time for some sps!

Those are sooooooooo expensive!!! 2 of those cost more than my rent lol. They really worth it?? I have 3 korollias ( two 1s and a 2 or 3) i got used for cheap n have no lack of flow in my 55 n thats a hard shape to prevent dead spots...

I thought I had no dead spots until I added the mp10, then it kicked up a lot if stuff. I am only using one in the tank but it is plenty, my tank looks better with just a tiny pump and no cords inside, I have it running on nutrient export mode, so it makes standing waves that move all the water, plus the corals and the anemone sway in the water which looks really cool! I got the none wireless which was 235 totally worth it! Trust me a also had koralias
