Ah updates...
We got our skimmer. This thing has just about made me sick so many times already. The skimmate that comes out of it is just plain old gag-worthy nasty.  I've added some Yellow tangs. Although yesterday when I came home I found two dead on the sand.  They have been an excellent addition to the tank and have done an amazing job at helping clean up the algae blooms I've had since starting the system up. Currently the RKE controls most of the system. I'm still working on getting the moonlights and the dosing system set up, but it coming along bit by bit.

The yellows are amazing together. They graze independently in a particular corner/side of the tank and then as a group they swim to the other side and begin grazing again. These fish were eating as they were acclimating and a few started eating as soon as they were dumped in the tank. They add a really nice splash of colour to the tank and it seems to liven it up some more.
There were 9 originally, then 2 went missing, bodies never to be found, and then yesterday the two on the sand. There are 5 left. I don't think they are picking each other off, there is/was no physical damage or evidence of any external problems. The skimmer gets emptied every other day, usually every day. By day 3 it is overflowing and foam is coming up out of the air vents in the collection cup lid. This thing is amazing.
