enough for a fish only tank?

[sweeTang21]

i have a 125 on my 120. Its less then id idealy want but for now its doing the trick. let me tell you, that thing on the lowest flow setting, skims like a cheese curd maker. very good skimmer for the money.

(serious face ) those things are junk...

WHY DIDN'T i READ THAT BEFORE i BOUGHT ONE. IT'S TOTAL CRAP. IT'S LOUD AS HECK AND I CAN'T RETURN IT.

Thats ALOT of light for just fish and live rock!
You should have stuck with the bigger tank (eisier to keep levels stable)
And if you are gonna get a skimmer Dont spend so much!
Try this one

Yeah you don't need that much light for FOWLR...half of that would be plenty. A 40gal is a good starting point, I don't think its too small to maintain stability. I run the CSS65 on my 55 reef, its a decent skimmer for the money but its really finicky. I want to do the meshwheel on mine and maybe open up the venturi a little to see if I can get it working better.

tell ya what, buy the light and just do coral lol. the light would be fine but as mentioned before, to much for your fish. Also take a look at quality. Ive never heard of this brand before so im going to guess theres not much to say about it. I dont know, i might just be under a rock too, who knows lol.

heres what id do,

They say its HO, but i dont know for sure. I have a similar unit and its regular t-5 I suppose it could be so im not ruling it out, but id go for a unit similar to that. Enough light for mushrooms if you wanted them and plenty for fish. Also the actinic will help make the color stand out on the fish more.
