I would recommend against them for a first time buyer. There are several threads on here that people have started in regards to problems they have had with the coralife skimmers. Plus IMO I think...

I use to have a 55g standard AGA tank (upgraded to a 120). Although it seems to be a popular size I would recommend staying away from it if you want to create a reef tank. Since the tank is very...
