+1 I have a very small amount in my QT that barely gets any light at all. It is not growing at nearly the pace it would with lighting, but it will...
Another non-sock user here. Makes maintenance much easier, and I have not seen any negative side effects. I also have snails and a mantis shrimp in...
I would start with the 2 750's. Then down the road, add a wavemaker and add 2 more (probably 550's).
Cool, because otherwise you are looking at wiring up your own switches I think.
I think what you are looking for is a DJ power supply rack, similar to this: Technical Pro PS9U Rack Mount Power Supply with 5V USB Charging Port...
Based on this, my uneducated advice is to assume your bacteria levels are fine and that you really do not have any ammonia. I would buy a Seachem...
How are you testing ammonia, API kit? I have found it is very hard to tell the difference between 0 & 0.25. I use Seachem ammonia checkers in all my...
I would google search each individually personally. Get the good with the bad. See what size systems they are being used on, their bioload and how...
From what I know, as mentioned a lot of manufacturers use the outside dimensions instead of inside. I can tell you my 55 is the same, and is very...

What size tank? What are your parameters? Filtration?
I would avoid putting it in your overflow at all costs. Not only would be inefficient, but I would be afraid of it being on once you turn your return...

It really depends on the size of the U-tube(s) and outlet pipe(s). Water will have no problem getting into the tank side of the box, it is how much...
Your return pump controls the flow rate, not the size of the box. You want your box to be able to handle at least 50% more flow than what your pump...
Welcome to 3reef! Post up some info and pics of your setup when you get a chance.
FYI I had a few peppermints randomly die on me. They were all eating fine, and one by one just die. Seems to be farely common from what I have seen....
My LFS has an entire tank setup for a customer! Looks to be around 120 gallons. Fully stocked mixed reef. At least doing it this way it is completely...
I would only do this with a controller. Reason being is it is not uncommon for a heater to fail while on, and can cook a tank. With two heaters, now...
I have a Jager in all 4 of my tanks :)
