Swannys 40 gallon breeder build

[swanny06]

Okay so this is my first saltwater tank. It's been a pretty slow process getting everything together for the tank. I'm taking my time so I don't run into problems down the road. However, it's looking like I'm only a few days away from adding water!

Here's a list of everything I'm using for the tank

-2 850 powerheads
- reef octopus 100 slimmer
- API salt water test kit
- lifeguard digital thermometer with temp alert
- Eheim Jager 150W heater
- 36" Orbit Marine LED light
- Red Sea reef mature pro kit
- Red Sea coral pro salt
- 30 pounds of Arag alive special grade reef sand
- Eheim everyday auto fish feeder
- 50' python no spill water change system
- refractometer
- 40 pounds of BRS reef rock
- RODI Filter

I have some pictures below. I'm currently aquascaping the rock so I should have some new pictures with that in tomorrow with the rest of the other parts that are not in the pictures yet.

So I added in the RO water the other day, my temperature is at a constant 80 degrees for the cycle. Skimmer and power heads are running perfect, and I've started adding the Red Sea pro kit to help the cycling along. She's on her way!
