i just ordered a 250 watt mh retrofit kit from hellolights. i will be building a canopy for it this week some time. i will be running the xm 20000k bulb. i have going to keep mostly lps and softies. planning on a nem and some clowns. nem will come after a few months when everything is stable. probably do a pair of true percs, 3 or 4 blue green chromis, and maybe a gobie or royal gamma. maybe a clam at the bottom. going to diy a protein skimmer this week as well and see how it works out.
