Suggestions for New Tank Setup

Hello Everyone:

I am looking for suggestions on how to transfer over a freshwater setup into a saltwater tank preferring a reef setup, however, tank size may not allow it.

Tank Dims:
Length - 60"
Width - 24"
Height - 34"

Current Filtration:
Internal Overflow - Central Unit on one end of tank
Wet/Dry Filter - Tidepole Bio-Wheel Sump

Current Lighting:
Ballasts - (2) Coralife Ez-Ballasts
Bulbs - (4) 20W Sun Glo

This tank will be taken care off on a bi-weekly basis. I was looking at the Eco-System Aquarium system with a high-end skimmer. Looking for suggestions. The tank can not be changed as it has already been purchased.

Any suggestions about specific components is more than welcome.

Looking for suggestions. Thanks,
Joe

I do not have any pictures, yet, but there is a custom cabinet and canopy already. I will be able to get dims once I got back to from Easter break.

Thanks for your suggestions.
