    I have a 150 gallon saltwater tank set up. I also have a 55 gallon that I integrated into the 150. I had the 55 gallon set up for almost a year and my heaters stuck on. Really depressing, but one fish survived. I was cycling the 150 to set a reef up. Luckily it was cycled completely before this incident happened. I only have a sweetlips, and a tomatoe clown. I have about 175 lbs live rock, and live sand (not quite sure exactly how much) along with some crushed coral. I currently am using two canister filters for it. I am planning on switching very shortly to a sump/refugium. I asked a question on this in a forum. I just purchased a new light fixture that I am waiting to be delivered. It has 3 mh, 4 vho, and 16 lunars. I am slowly getting what is needed for the reef of my dreams. lol Any and all advice and/or input will be greatly appreciated. :)

    Welcome. Good Luck with the tank! What are you using in your canister filters. I use 2 canisters on my 40 gal, just wondering what you have in them.
