Getting ready to start a new 90 gallon reef


Hi all,

Finally figured out what I want in the tank, basically some soft corals, zoos, and maybe a few LPS in a shallow sand bottom. Went to the LFS to get a list of the equipment I'll need for a 90 gallon tank. Here's the list, please let me know if this is a good setup or what can be improved:

Euro Reef SC80 skimmer
PC lights
Mag 12 Pump
2 Seio powerheads
33 g sump and refugium

The guy wrote it out for me but it's pretty hard to make out his handwriting.

Thanks

They are Coralife Aqualights. Not sure if they are the 4X65watt or the 2X65 watt.

They had the same lights setup in a 46g display, and they looked pretty good. I will be getting the tank in the next couple of weeks and will post pics once I have it setup.
