In the system I am setting up I'll have the majority of my live rock in the inline sump and frag tank. Is there a way you can get ahold of whoever you bought the system off of and see if they remember how much rock is in there? It's not that big of a deal, put as much as you can in the tank without it looking overcrowded and allow for lots of swimming space/coral growth. The rest toss in the sump or re-sell.

I have 300 in my 260g and there is ample room. Prior to me adding 175 pounds f it, it took the smaller fish out and watched the others so they would not get crushed in the shuffle. Just do a few pieces at a time and stare it for awhile to know the shapes and sizes that work together. It took me well over six hours to add mine but I have never had to move them since I added them. With ample rock you have lots of caves and tunnels of all different shapes and sizes. Use the flat rocks as shelves. My canreef buddy came over and was awestruck at the "real estate" I have for future corals. I have 18 fish, some pretty large and you cannot find them even if you look for them. I have tunnels and spaces for all the different sized of fish to hide and sleep.

Take your time, take your shirt off and wear rubber boots. You will have a blast!!!
