So here is my dilemma, I started saltwater hobby back in 1998, I was successful in maintaining a FOWLR tank until i got out in 2005. Now that my kids are off to college, it leaves me with more time. Hence, the reason to jump back into the hobby. I would love to set up this tank without wasting any equipment that i don't have to. so tell me what i can still use or re-purpose and what has advanced and needs to be replaced.
MY SET UP:
180 gallon reef ready clarity plus acrylic aquarium, oak stand and canopy
lighting: ice cap 430 VHO retro kit(bought this brand new before I got out and never set up or used) I have the bulbs for them also
filtration: 200gallon rated wet/dry
aqua C 150 protein skimmer
jaeger 300 watt heater
2 RIO's 3100
150 pounds of live rock that is now dry
substrate is crushed coral
all advice would greatly be appreciated.
