I am setting up a FOWLR tank and have gotten the following equipment:

29 gal tank
aquarium stand
100 w heater
50 watt backup heater
aquaclear 20 power head
aquaclear 50 powerhead
fluval 205 sump
fluval surface skimmer attachment
turbo twist 9w UV sterilizer
super skimmer for 65 g tank
30 lbs of Dr. F&S Lalo live rock (being cured right now)
32 LBS of Natures ocen bio-active substrate
nitrate absorber for sump
supplements
30" orbit sunpaq lighting 2x65 watt (dual daylight + dual actenic + moonlights)
clear acrylic cover

Is this good enough to go? I have a 10 gal that I have had going for a few months now, so I know whats going on at least. Any suggestions/
 
I'm unfamilair with the "fluval 205 sump" even after looking through hagen's site, or do you mean the fluval 205 canister filter? If not, can you provide me with a link?

All in all, your setup sounds great, and should be adequate for not only fish but most corals (both soft and stony), provided that you give it enough time and mantain the params where they should be.

I thought that a canister was a sump. sorry, it is a canister, and I was also considering corals later, so it is good to know that I will be ok on that too.
