Slowly remove the bioballs 1/4 per week. They are a nitrate factory in the long run, and aren't beneficial to a reef. Otherwise it looks good. I'm happy to see you are smart and use two heaters instead of one. Of course I am assuming that have a combined wattage of 200-250w?

Looks good. But I personsally I would not use the bioballs at all. What Myka said. Try live rock rubble instead. You should'nt have to use any type of sponge or filter media either unless you plan on cleaning it often, nitrate trap as well. Once it is up and running than you will know if you need that if there is microbubbles. So no skimmer?

Why would a skimmer lead to Aptasia troubles? No correlation. Skimmers just take the extra Proteins out of the water.

Skimming has nothing to do with aptasia or mojano's, its a natural part of reefing. They really dont do anything bad they are just a pest and hard to get rid of. I run an ER RS180 on my tank and i still have aptasia's although my pepermint shrimp are slowly getting rid of them.
