Upcoming build-nuvo AIO 25 lagoon

Saltyfox · 09/04/2019, 05:05 PM

I’ll be starting a 25 gallon lagoon aquarium from innovative marine in the next few months and I would love some tips on the best equipment to run. Skimmer will have to fit In the back AIO section. I would like to keep the build fairly low budget although it’s almost impossible on this hobby. I’m not sure on lights/ATO and I will likely go with an mp10 but wouldn’t mind finding a decent wavemaker for less money but I’ve been out of the hobby for awhile and not sure what’s out there. Planning on keeping everything but SPS and clams.

I'm no expert but I think until 40g you can keep it simple with low bioload. No skimmer no refugium is needed for me unless I want to pack a tank. Get away everything with water change. Then you can afford one more mp10 or better light which is more flow in your tank

My 25 lagoon I'm running an XR15, and an mp10. Just recently set up a IM20, using an AI prime and nero 5. I like the nero 5 a lot, moves a lot of water, cheaper than an mp10. The XR15 will be plenty for sps/lps, but there are a good number of lights that'll support sps/lps.
