I'm loving my Freshwater 70g tank at the moment but sooner or later I'll end up trying out a salt reef. I've had my fair share of Saltwater knowledge from my 3 year process with Nano Tanks (Will be a Nano reef by next week, Already have 2 Corals in) and I'd love to try out a large reef. Don't know why but it's only lately I've shown an interest in large Reefs. I just need help on the Price list first and I'll come to the stock later; I don't need EVERYTHING such as testing kits, Foods and such. I just need the pricing on things such as protein skimmers, Filters, Powerheads, Live Rock and a Sump. The more expensive items. I could fit a 30g sump in there easily but it's just things like that. I already have the tank.

As for the stock I just need an example of a stock on what to know from, As I've said I don't know much on large reefs so I'll need help on large fish with their tank size and such but that's all. I was thinking something like: 2 Clowns, Some sort of tang such as a Yellow or Tomini, Firefish, Some gobies and such.
 
And as for the lighting, AIs would be too expensive for my liking even though I have a SOL On my 20g but just one.
 
My 75 gallon reef, not a normal reef :)

Peppermint shrimp, coral banded shrimp

Small hermits, and a dozen nassuarus snails three emerald crabs

Kenya tree, green star polyps, bright orange and green mushrooms, some type of flat, purple coral on a rock-mystery coral, and I have a couple zoanthid groups

Two mosquitofish-9 hours of drip acclimating, blue chromis, maroon clownfish, foxface, yellow coris wrasse, and Niger triggerfish-I keep it well fed, so far no problems
