I don't know if we can help you more, you are starting off right. Great gear!!!

Maybe look into:
- Vortech MP40W
- More LR
- Deltec Fluidizer with NP BioPellets

Show us some pic's once you get things functional.

Have fun!!!

Forget the Ca reactor and kalk stirrer, go for a Profilux doser; go ATI or Sfiligoi for your T5HO lighting, and you'll be pimpin in no time.

Oh yeah, and go top down, that's right, go trimless. Oh yeah.

Personally, I'd probably go for the following for 6 bulbs..
2x ATI Aquablue Specials
2x ATI Blue+
1x KZ Fiji Purple

For the last bulb it's really preference but you could do another Blue+ or even do a 6500k bulb.
