So will this setup work?

i respectfully disagree. when properly placed with correct tank conditions, most corals can be kept under T5 HO. i keep montis, clams, birdsnest, chalices, and anemones under mine. i know you are going for FOWLR, but dont limit yourself!! good luck!!

 

I have a seaclone skimmer on my 90g and havent had any issues with it working.... I think because its a cheaper skimmer alot of people are thinking they will crap out on you early, but if your like me and have a budget to maintain.... they work for the price. I found alot of reviews on them and the good outweighed the bad by far

 

i know about t5's and the harder corals, but we have to bait him in with the easy soft corals first, before we get him addicted to the hard stuff. lol.

 

You're like the corner drug dealer. Start'em on the soft stuff then get'em hooked on the hard.;D
