Yes I definitely plan to add more rock that’s just currently what I have curing in my current tank waiting for this one.

I’ll look into the skimmers you suggested.
My buddy had a bubble king and I wasn’t overly impressed. But it’s been a while since I’ve seen it in action

Good - Super Reef Octopus 5000 or 5000SSS
Better - Reef Octopus Regal 250INT or 250SSS
Best - Reef Octopus Elite 200INT or 200 SSS Super Cone

(SSS = pump inside the body)
(INT = pump outside the body)
But both are in sump skimmers.

Well I’ve started ordering and collecting stuff and things.
I have Ordered

The tank. Euro braced 80”x36”deep x24” tall with bean animal overflow
Nyos Quantum 300 skimmer
2-MP40 QD
Full apex with screen
Apex auto feeder
4 heaters
Couple mag pumps for my water change setup. Will just be flipping light switches
Test kits
Refractometer
3 more buckets aquaforest reef salt.

My brother came by and went over a stand layout so he’s gonna weld that up in the next 2 weeks.
I have a couple dedicated 20A circuits in place.
I’m hoping if I hang my 48” LED light high enough I will have enough spread to not get dark spots but we will see.
