Still waiting on the skimmer delivery date....but i have the tank all dumped and scrubed and filling with the new ro/di unit..... be a couple days till she is full so in the mean time Ill be working on a better way to use the sump with a refridgium??? and drill my hole for the inline skimmer and get the carbon and GFO reactor all rigged up.
Ill probably have to mix my salt right in the tank but I can heat it and add powerheads right to it before it gets to the height of the overflow so I may try to get some live rock in there with all that before i get the sump going.

"Refugium"
Ya, get the water mixed up to the right salinity (1.025-6 for reef, 1.021-3 for fish) and get your rock in there. Then you will have time to look for pests (and treat if need be) as well as arrange rocks and re-arrange, and arrange again.  Where did you end up getting rock from?

There is a local lady on here shutting down her tank 210G? that has around 200 and a guy ive bought from before has 100lbs of fijii waiting for me to get my but in gear, If i add anymore it will be macro or ecoreef dead rock as I dont want any more chance of pests

Ya, starting up a 300 isn't cheap that's for sure. I would suggest you try out a couple "islands" of rocks. Try to have as few as possible touching the bottom of the tank...the less in the sand the better.
