Thanks Mike. Cant wait for lights. I am working on rock now. Seems like sand it will be for me. Wife really likes sand. It seems I might need more dry rock for a arch idea I wanted to see. Also have to order a heater. For temp control I will have one 250watt heater and one 300watt set to 76. One 8inch fan directly over sump at 79 degrees. At 81 I have another fan.
I added sand to refuge and some water. As I add sand and rock it should fill refuge.
Safir, I think I will take you up one that. Mike tank with out heater is at 72 as per reefkeeper. So I imagine that I would need heating. This tank is by far more silent than even my discus tank. Wondering if t5s will provide some additional heat.
Yeah they will. I bet they move it up to 75 or so, depending on how well your canopy is vented. What do you keep your house at, 70?
I would turn the heater off until you get ready to add fish and coral. Bacteria don't die they are just a little slower. Ammonia is less toxic at lower temps as well. Your salinity will read lower as well.

Just add 3 blue damsels. Everything will be fine. ;-)
Z if it turns out you need another heater I have a 300w Jaeger new in box
