And Mark, WOW!! I just read thru your tank build and it was VERY helpful! (And gorgeous) Thank you so much for sharing!!
I do have a few questions:
I noticed you had your returns come up and over the overflow but I was planning on having the overflow as a coast to coast and the returns situated on the outside edges. And a Maxspect Gyre maybe 280 on the inside.
I was hoping that would be enough total flow for the whole tank?
And concerning your SPS loss, did you ever figure it out? I had a similar issue that was due primarily to low Alk and now things are much better.

Well it turns out I'm not getting the Fluval SP4 after all.
The purchase didn't go thru. Maybe that's more than a coincidence, lol)
Anyhow, back searching for a controllable pump now. In particular the Reef octopus vario 6, but not 100% yet. None available I could find currently...
I do like the idea of controllable, yet quiet. Thx for the tips😊

Would a Waveline DC 6000 be large enough, though? I was thinking the 10000 model.
