Edmonton Freshie walking the plank, Any advice to ease the wallet/headaches :)

[Hustler]

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.
