Default Upgraded - My New (to me) 72 Gallon bowfront reef

I have so far the tank, stand and 20 gallon sump and overflow.
Lighting and skimming are up in the air right now but probably going with t5's or cf's.
This is the biggest tank I've had and only my 3rd sw/reef.
I will take some pics once initial set up is done, but for now I'm going to play around with the setup using freshwater to make sure thare are no re-do's later on.
I experienced something of a wipe out in my 36 gallon bow where aside from a couple of zebra hermits and my pistol shrimp along with 2 fanworms, nothing survived so I am going to be starting from scratch once the new system is cycled (I'm anticipating 4 months using half old substrate and half old sw).

I never want to have to deal with something like that again as I had grown rather attached to my royal gramma and the ecosystem I had built her.

I'm going to document my progress here, more for myself than anyone, so please give me your constructive criticisms and advice freely.

Man oh man have I neglected this journal.
I'll kick this up a notch soon, but in the mean time, here is a couple pics of the tanks status thus far.
