Hello, Making this thread to document the build of my new 65 gallon reef ready tank.
So far here is the build out:
-1 Kessil A160 with Controller (this will be upgraded to better reef lighting in the future one the tanks is fully established and ready for coral. not sure if I'm going to go with a T5 Hybrid or just LED)
-Red Sea coral pro salt.
-40 Pounds of dry rock.
--$0 pounds Fiji Pink sand
-Aquatop GFO reactor
-Simplicity Skimmer.
-EcoTech Vectra S2 return (Still have to install)
-Aquatop 300 heater
-Smart ATO

As for live stock, the tank has bee cycling for 4 week with no light and seems to be settled. so I have added 2 mocha clowns. I also have CUC on its way this week.

Tank layout looks great. You are going to love using Red Sea Coral Pro. It's so clean and mixes and clears fast.

Update: locking in the lighting with a par meter and fine tuning the daily dose intake. A pair of clowns and a hippo tang are out of the QT. I
