    well, I am very impressed! Thank you for your service. Your wife made the right call on painting it. You may even think about putting some starfish or something for the doors. Just a thought.

    What are your plans for the tank!

    Probably the same way I did before, lots of different zoas, some leathers, I want to do a lot of SPS and lots of sand level LPS. As far as fish go, just peaceful vibrantly colored ones, provably a yellow tang and around five or six others.

    I like it white better too. It blends well.

    You got a great plan. Looking fwd to seeing it. No rush. I'm waiting to upgrade until I get a new place too.

    You are using a reef keeper lite right?

    I want to know how/ if you are incorporating that to your dosing pumps.

    I have yet to find a good site to truly explain what the reef keeper lite's capabilities and regular reef keeper etc.

    Sorry if that a dumb question. Sweet build though!

    I'm not connecting my dosing pump to my reef keeper, the pump has timers built in and there is no benefit to hooking it up to my RKL. If there were probes to monitor Calcium, Alk and Mag then I would defiantly hook it up

    I use my RKL to monitor temp and PH, it also controls my heaters by turning them on and off baised in temp. I also use it for ATO and to control kalk stirrer
