jpluttme (or anyone else for that matter), on what kind of ballast do you run your 12k reeflux? Do you supplement? How would you describe the color without supplementation?

I don't think they're even retagged, mine wasn't if I remember right. It's definitely a Ranco either way though.

Other than coral selection, which you already mentioned, tank height is the other major factor that really determines what type of lights you'll need for the corals you have in mind. So, what are the...

I second this motion, somebody asked the water level question of me after I posted those skimmate pics, and I honestly haven't figured out the answer yet. The skimmer builds a head of foam so fast...

3/8" will be plenty, it's only 12" deep. And you can get away with pretty light bracing as well, maybe a 2" eurobrace with good radius corners.

chadfarmer,

I think the post Victor quoted answered most of your questions, but I'll try to elaborate on a couple.

1) My previous skimmer was an external DIY recirc. 8" ID cylinder with a 3"...

Yeah, the skimmer has been impressing me more and more. My bioload is actually pretty light; 2 tangs (4" and 6"), a maroon clown (4"), and a mandarin fish (3"). I do try to feed twice a day, but...

Hopefully not too many. I, for one, would much rather wait for a company to R&D a product as much as possible before introducing it to market. I'm sure ATB is moving just as quickly as they can on...

1. The return pump should be more than enough, generally low flow through the sump is better.

Yeah, now I'm confused, is it 44" from the top to the bottom or from the front to the back? An 8 foot long tank that's 44" tall and only 24" front to back sounds like it would be a PITA. Imagine...

The new icecap ballast is technically an HQI, it's actually listed at 265w. So, the output from the two ballasts will be more similar than comparing the magnetic HQI to an old icecap. Still, 265w is...
