Well I thought it was time for an update since I had gotten my light fixture and can now take better pictures (..somewhat.) Since December I have added -

Two Koralia 4 powerheads
60 Ibs of dry eco rock and 40 Ibs of live rock.
A fuge light and chaeto
A Tunze osmolator
A DIY eggcrate stand for my skimmer
A Sunlight Maristar 48 " 250 W MH/T5 fixture
T5 (one Actinic/one 15000K bulb)
MH (14000 K Ushio) bulb x2

2 Astrea snails
2 Nassarius snails
1 Blue porcelain crab

For whatever reason I never really had much of an ammonia/nitrite spike. I am not sure if that is because the LR came right from a fellow reefers tanks and was already cured. I also had my protein skimmer on while cycling.

Hitchikers I have noticed are-

Aptasia, Pineapple sponges, collonista snails, and digitate hydroids (there are alot of these and I am hoping to get rid of them soon.)

Here are some pictures of the tank and sump. I forgot to clean the front of the tank so I apologize that the pictures are not the best.
