My 25g reef tank & sump (Loads of photos and videos)

Tank is 1 week old, here is a short video of it : 25 gallon reef tank with led flood lights - YouTube

Details:
DT: 24"x15"x15"
Lighting: 2x10w blue and 2x10w White Led flood lights.
Sand: crushed coral
Flow: Sobo 3000lph (temperary)
Sump: 24"x10"x12"
Filteration: GFO, Carbon, LR, Toadstool Algae and halmedia
Skimmer: Boyu
ATO - Electronic float switch with aqualifter pump
Salt : Red sea Salt

Live stock:
fishes: 1 chromis and few snails in the sump.
corals: pink, yellow and green zoas, palys and mushrooms.

MISTAKES: I dumped a 2 kg packet into the water and the tank was dead cloudy for two days. reason was i dint dry mix the salt and dint go slowly. so emptied the tank and then first dry mixed the salt then added 1 scoop every 5 mints (total 35 scoops)

will add more pics....

 

any comments on my tank build? also would like to know that for howlong should the sump lights be on? currently im keeping it on for 14hrs (night when dt lihts are shut)

heres my new video of the entire system.. my new 25g reef tank with sump - YouTube

 

Where did you purchase the led flood lights. I have never heard of them being used over a tank but I must say the effect is striking.

 

my DT lights are on from 10am to 10pm and my sump lights are on from 9pm to 11pm... thats ok?

 

Personally I'd cut the DT lights down to 8-10hrs a day and run your sump lights opposite of those for 8-10hrs a night.

Are your whites/blues on the same timer? Running your white for 8hrs and blues for 10 works great. Have the blues come on 1hr before the whites, then off 1hr after the whites go off. More of a day/night effect

Beautiful setup you have! All 3 of them
