Additional Equipment for Red Sea Max e260?

[Lrfox]

Well, next month is Christmas for me. We recently moved into our new home and I have permission from the wife to start my new tank with the caveat that it can't be a mix of found components like my previous setups. She's agreed to the RSM e260 (white) because it looks modern and fits the decor. It'll be be mostly LPS and softies- at least at first. With a pair of Picassos, tailspot blenny, gramma and maybe a sixline.

I know these are marketed as AIO, and I will get the model with the LEDs, but I'm wondering what else I should add? I've never run a chiller because I live in New England, have central air and my house is never above 72-74 degrees. However I've heard these tanks run hot. So maybe grab one? Anything else I might need/ want given my stock list? (Of course, it can't be too bulky). Thanks!

The only must add would be a heater to keep your temperature stable. A great to have would be an auto top off system. With the open top evaporation can be huge in these tanks. Good luck.

With the LEDs on it I haven't needed a chiller and am in Southern MD. Have you set it up?

We have one in the store I work at that's been up for 6-7 months. No need for a chiller or any other equipment.
