    Has anyone put a sump in their IM 38gal stand? I know there is a center brace. I was wondering if anyone has not installed the center brace for there stands?

    Thanks for any info

    Brand new to Salt Water Reef

I have turned my skimmer off, and will work it back into the mix on a daily start and test basis. I suspect that it will probably have to be off for at least three or four days. Will post as I discover the duration.

    I am brand new to Salt Water and want to use the best of everything for the mini 38. Money is not the problem, knowledge is the problem.
    thanks in advance for any help.

    I am getting ready to order one. (tank only) first, you did not mention what skimmer you have, I am assuming this one.
    Innovative Marine AuqaGadget Nuvo SkimMate Nano Protein Skimmer - MidSize?

    I also read that the best light for this aquarium is the
    Ecoxotic Panorama Pro LED Fixture - 24 in.
    (they say it fits perfect and it is dimmable etc..)

    I am wondering if I should put on an UV light?

    What is the best heater, for it?

    To make it as successful as possible, what else would you consider, and why?
