Your tank looks incredible. I love how organized all of your equipment is

Thanks!
Things are coming along. Tank is going through the normal stages of life....unfortunately that includes algae.
Chemistry is stable though.
ALK 8.8 DKH
CAL 420ppm
Mag 1340ppm
PH 8.1 average
So to help win the fight against algae I've installed a 40w UV. I've got about 300gph of flow going through it to aid in ich reproduction. My fish don't show any signs of ich but I know it's in there. Anyway, I know UV is a highly debatable topic, but if I reflect back to the tanks I've ran in the past with a properly sized UV, I realize those with UV have had better growth and color that those without.
I've tapped into the 4,000gph output of the Reeflo Super Dart and dialed in the flow with a 3/4" Cepex ball valve. The outlet of the UV feeds my fuge.
I've also started feeding the tank. 20ml of zooplankton every other day as well as a daily amino acid supplement.
Last pic is my full skimmate locker I created out of a secondary calcium reactor chamber.

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.
That's the one. Great fan! Moves a good bit of air and is pretty quiet. I can hear it when it's in but it's not too loud. Doesn't interfere with watching tv or anything. Now, the 3,000 gph or return water slamming into my filtersocks at Mach 1 does
.Nice start.
Thank you!
Ditto.
I hope i can get some nice acro pics in the coming weeks and share.
Glad to have you. Thanks. The start up from scratch is a bit tough and I'm trying not to rush things.
So of the sps I've added, the frags from my local LFS look great (grown under t-5). The frags from Copps have browned out (kept under MH). Looks like they are going to need more time to acclimate to my t-5 lighting. So for that reason I have very few pics I'm not ashamed to share 
. Soon though.
