Sorry for replying a bit late. things you'll need to run a marine tank:
Tank and sump (you got it)
Lights
Return pump
Flow pumps
Skimmer
Heaters (two is better than one incase of a failure)
RO unit
Refractometer or hydrometer to measure salinity
Drum for make up water (waterchanges) and airstone or small pump
Salt
Test kits - ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, pH, kH and later, phosphates, calcium, magnesium
fish food
Good quality live rock
Substrate
NO BIO-BALLS
NO CERAMIC RINGS
Light for sump if you want to have chaeto in there
Plumbing
A power back up system of some sorts
Patience
Hope I didn't forget something
That sounds good, although the flow is determined by the corals you keep - SPS needs high flow and strong lights and LPS needs medium flow and not so strong lights as they are generally deeper in the ocean.
Return pump of 3000-4000lph is fine and 4-6 flow pumps inside.
Each has its own benefits. Carx is not really needed if you don't have a SPS setup. I have the info(pros and cons) at home, will see if I get a chance to post it for you later. Just a bit busy...
