My last 5 tanks did just fine without a sump/Refugium. They had no external filters of any kind. The filtration was the four major filtration components listed in the thread linked below in my signature line. Some Pics are also at the end of the Tips and How to's section of that thread. Smile

I have plenty of Oolitic sand and LBTR if you want the best quality stuff and/or don't want to go looking for it.Star

For the small price difference T5HO is the way to go. You can get good coral growth using PC's, I have them on my Nano and they're OK but I love my T5HO's on the frag system. The colors really pop with good T5HO Tubes.]]> Thu, 22 Jul 2010 01:26:49 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42398&PID=368724&title=55g-sumpless#368724 <![CDATA[55G Sumpless : I&#039;m looking on that site,...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42398&PID=368723&title=55g-sumpless#368723 Author: rwccomptech

Aquatraders has a great little T5HO setup for cheep. The older units weren't much good but the new ones have advance ballasts and work great. You will probably want to upgrade the bulbs within 6 months though as thier bulbs aren't the best but it's hard to beat the price.

Drs Foster and Smith (.com) have some pretty good pricing. Also check Marine and Reef(.com). But you are looking at a few hundred bucks.

So I might have found a 55g tank, and now I'm just gonna look for the stand and power heads. I am also gonna draw up a diagram of what I'm wanting to do with the setup. So does anyone know a cost friendly t5 setup.
