I have some sps at the top too, but my water changes don't go below that level. Sps can be taken out of the water for periods of time, so if you do...
Generally, tap water is not great for reef tanks, if you have fish only it would be better, but still not great. Tap water can contain chlorine and...
It really hard to say, a lot depends on your power head placement and the flow in the area. The frogspawn should be fine, elegance corals, depending...
I think adding a sump is always a good idea. I also have a 55 gal. reef and added a 20 gal. long sump. I put all of my equipment, heaters, skimmer,...
I would have to say no. Most parrot fish get any where from 1" to 4" in length. How big is it now? They are also entirely not reef safe so no...

The best way to prevent unwanted coraline growth is to continually clean your tank with a scraper. If you get it before it starts to grow you will be...
You have enough xenia to supply several tanks
By neutralizing the ammonia you are just prolonging the cycle. I would suggest that you let it sit for another month, test the parameters again and...
I would go for it, if the people eaters are really that, it would be worth it alone. the other stuff is nothing special, but nice. As others have...
