Getting back into reefing...

[Mahogany Man]

Hello,
Did this reef tank nonsense, haha, about 20 years ago, had great success, ended up moving, never did it again, until now!!
Picked up a Red Sea 170 reefer, having some leaking issues with the tank, but everything is off to a good start.
Wife is the driving force behind this set, she loves watching the critters.

Working on that, Red Sea is helping, I thought it was a crack in the main drain valve tube, turns out
the tube it attaches to is cracked!

Sorry for the delay in updating this.....
RedSea sent replacement plumbing, I emptied overflow box, replaced both tubes and plumbing, leak is fixed now, this was actually in middle May 2017.
Once that was taken care of, tank cycled with no issues, usual diatom blooms......
Added Ecotech Radion, 2 MP10 Vortechs, Reeflink, Nyos 120 Skimmer, cover.
All is going well, have a few hammers, torch, pair of clowns the wife picked out and some shrooms.

In the process of selecting a bigger tank.
Can't make up my mind how to go about it though.
AIO tanks may not be the best choice for me.
