Thanks for the comments!
Let's bring this up to date: (This is a summary post copied and pasted from my local forum BTW, I took out most of the text)
Radion is hung, all powercords are zip-tied in place, equipment is hidden by curtain, tank is cycling! YIPPPEEEE!



New fish too, meet P.J. (real original and creative eh, I am like that with names)

You can see a chromis there if you look, we got 3 green small ones

And Hawk

Update time (almost up to date.) SpS are doing great, I started using Kalk in my ATO about 6 weeks ago. First I used B-Ionic Buffer for a few weeks to get my levels where I wanted them, I figured out my evaporation rate and set my Reefkeeper multi-timer to run my ATO pump for 30 seconds every 25 minutes. The pump will only turn on when the tank needs water because I left the Avast ATO in the loop. Seems to be keeping my levels completely stable.

Here's a FTS

I won this AIO at a Salty BBQ. Donated by JT acrylics. I had Jon drill it for me and I plumbed it into the main tank:






Here it is all up and running. Home to my new designer clowns from Krakenauctions and a mangrove garden in the overflow section. IT sits in direct sunlight from the window.

I finally got a new phone (lived with a smashed screen for the last 3 months and couldn't take pictures) I still haven't figured out how to take good pictures with it yet though.
The tank is doing great!

Clown loves to host the torch!
