Very nice, how long has it been running? Do you have any plans or directions you wanted to take the tank?

I bought it already established for a year and half. It was FOWLR and I have upgraded it with the lighting and the skimmer. My summer project is to incorporate a sump. Im still a little nervous about drilling it so I might just go with an external overflow. I also might get a mp40w to clean up the look. In the next 2 weeks I am going to add my last two fish, a 6 line and something else TBD. If I get the sump and an auto top-off then I might give sps a go, but not until those two options happen. Other than that I am just going to keep adding LPS and softies.

Nice start, looking good. While my own tank is a 40Br and sumpless (I prefer it) I do encourage you to drill the overflow if you decide on a sump. It really is not that difficult but very much worth the trouble.

As for an auto top-off I encourage you to try out aquahub website and browse through their kit options. Easy installation and a world of worry off your shoulders.
