Thanks Clarence!!😊
As for husbandry methods. I do monthly water changes with ro/di water I make. I use reef crystals & have been for over 10 years. I do approx 50 gallons or 15% of the total water volume. Only trace elements I put in is reef solution by Eco-systems. I’ve never tried Triton or the other methods you mentioned so I can’t really comment on those.
I’m test regularly & often for alkalinity. Usually weekly but more often if necessary. To me it’s by far the most important to test for. The others like Magnesium, phosphate, nitrate I test once per month.
I have approx 35 fish & feed pretty heavy.

Nice tank looks like I am looking at the exact same tank from CD, my tangs need fin room. Anything that you would have differently?
Hey Jim....congrats! Honestly I love my aquarium dimensions-72x30x27”. One thing I might change is not do starphire again, it scratches too easily IMO. I am very careful & can’t understand where the scratches have come from. I think once a reef grows in I’m not sure anyone could tell the difference between the two types of glass.
Also, I might have also opted to have two small holes on each back corners of the eurobrace. Where they could be used fo powerhead cords or to allow for feeding of the fish.
I also added a 1/4” lip on the top of the tank where it meets the Eurobrace which I love. Prevents any water drips down the front or side panels.
Feel free to call me if you have more questions.

I’ve gone through all the pictures in your post and none capture the jaw dropping experience of standing right in front of it. I’m crossing my fingers hoping you don’t shut down anytime soon like @livinglocal.
