Wrangy's CADE HL600
Introduction:
So as some may know I was going to be setting up a RSM130D and doing an led upgrade on the tank but due to my own time constraints and being able to actually get one (which I was able to before I needed to, unfortunately). Because of all that's happened I ended up purchasing a CADE HL600 which is the 2ft cube cade with external overflow and sump. I'll be running leds and looking to create as natural as possible reef with a sps dominated focus. The equipment currently listed may change as I'm going down to Reeflections tomorrow to start the big buy up :p
I'd love to add a refugium into the sump so I'll being seeing how I can work it to add even a small one with just some live rock and maybe some macro algae. I'll see how it all goes tomorrow
Reefing Since: Tomorrow when the tank goes wet, been researching and reading about everything and anything marine and reef related for the past year with a special focus in the last 6 months
System Objectives: I'm going to be trying to keep as simple as possible as I don't want to over-complicate it, I'll be doing everything slowly including adding extra equipment if/when needed to make sure I don't go overboard
Type of reef: SPS dominated reef with maybe a few lps and some zoas/mushies/rics
Display System:

Display Tank Dimensions: 2ft cube (600x600x550)
Display Lighting: LED's (illumagic blaze most likely)
Stand: Cade cabinet
Hood or Rimless: Rimless
Sump Design: Standard cade sump
Filtration: Live Rock and undecided on the rest at them moment. Something involving carbon, GFO and maybe some Purigen?

Display Water circulation: Return nozzle and 2x Tunze 6045's
Return Pump: Eheim Compact 2000+
Skimmer: Either Deltec or an RLSS R6-i

I am truly a lover of all thing aquatic and so I will be going full live rock and trying to keep as many critters as possible and build my system from the base up in terms of its biology :) Any help and suggestions will be greatly appreciated as I'm sure I will need some in the future :) Feel free to ask me any questions too, I'm happy to do whatever I can to help out :)
