Hello All,

I have been keeping fresh water and brackish fish for some years and know the basics pretty well but we have just moved house and my planning for a fish only marine setup with the following:
120G wish sump (no idea on size of sump yet but will be custom made)
Live rock.
unsure on substrate.
And the usual stuff like a good protein skimmer / RO unit and UV

The only fish I’m interested in keeping is a Porcupine Puffer (which i know a fair bit about ) but would also like to house a Lion fish and ideally a Moray eel with a few cleaning fish ( unsure yet )

To round up, my main questions which im still unsure about is:
#1.which substrate would be better for these fish?
#2.would a 120g tank be big enough to house these, if not what would go best with a Porcupine?
#3. as these are messy feeders and i have no idea on sump filtration, what would you recommend ?

Any advice will be greatly appreciated :)
