The way the system works acually starts with the pump. Imajine you start with your sump full. The tank is not completely full so the water level is...
Nice looking tank. Are you planning on doing fresh or marine in there? that would look amazing with coralline covering the rock wall.
Looks like an awesome start. I like the rock formation being off center like you have it but I would be very cautious. If the rocks fall or you bump...
How often are you cleaning the filtration. If you are having high ammonia and nitrate problems this could be the cause. With fish as dirty as gold...
Some people just don't remember that its only a piece of metal. In my mind my car is not only designed to get me around but to take one for the team...

You are definitely ok. Most heaters allow the tank to drop 1 degree below what there set at before bringing it back up.
Ok doesn't sound like your too bad off. If your reading nitrite using strips I suggest getting a liquid test. I also suggest taking a sample to your...
24/7. As some people stated it might be counter productive in a reef system. If you can adjust the flow on it try running a higher flow. This will...
Sounds like you may still be in a cycle. Do you have any live stock in the tank? If so I highly recommend getting them out until your nitrites clear...
You have a pair of sailfins? How big are they and what size tank are they in?
