This is my first SW aquarium and I'm just waiting for quotes on the set up at the moment.
I think I'm going to go with a 120 gallon tank with a sump(not sure what size i should go with). I want to use the sump as a refugium to grow Copepods and Amphipods. The refugium in this video is what I think I want to shoot for:

For the display tank I'm wondering what easy thing I can put in it besides live rock? Any marine plants that you would recommend from this list:

Also, what are the best plants to put in the refugium?

For lighting I don't know much and was wondering what is the most attractive lighting for a fish only set up?
Well let me know what you think and tell me if there is something else i should be thinking about.
