If you plan on adding more tap water instead of ro water, you should at least get a tap water conditioner like stress coat.
Hey, I just caught the reef fever too, just switched a week ago. I also have to make a couple fish changes(Lunare wrasse). Your tank looks way better...
I got a canopy on mine, but my next is definitely going to be open top.
Mysis shrimp with garlic, also have you tried the purple nori?
I'm in, and apparently I'm the only one in So Cal.
I'd say like 6 but I heard you have to have like 3 females per male, but chromis are much cheaper.
+ 1 on the cleaner shrimp (not cleaner wrasse though, because I heard they don't do well in aquariums). There are reef safe medications like kick ich...

I appreciate your concerns, but my tank is already full of messy eaters. I plan on getting a strong protein skimmer to make up for it. I have been...
Great post! Just today I was going to pick up either a batfish or a clown tang. Thank god I went with a hardier fish. Just wondering, why not...
a little bit off topic but, why are refugiums, or even sumps, long instead of tall? It seems that you waste more space that way, why aren't they more...
Just a guess, but is the room behind the tank going to be the filter room? Also, it looks like you really planned ahead, with the the tubes hanging...
