New Reef Tank - New Reefer - Triton Method

[KevinRosso]

Hey Everyone! I'm starting a new reef tank. 60 Gallon Cube with 20 gallon long DIY Sump. I've been researching and listening to reefing podcasts for the last 3 years and finally have the room and money to jump into reef keeping. Looking to have a mixed reef and I'm planning on doing the Triton Method. I would love any input and advice on how best to move forward. So here is my planned setup:
60 Gallon Rimless Cube 24x24x24 - Acquired
Kessil a360WE - Need to buy
Not Sure on Powerheads
DIY Stand 36x30x30 - Acquired
20 Gallon DIY Sump with 5-6 gallon chaeto refugium section - Acquired
Reef Octopus 110 Space Saver Protein Skimmer - Acquired
Kessil a80 for Fuge - Need to Buy
Jaebo DCS-3000 Return Pump - Acquired
Aqua Medic Reef Doser Evo 4 - Need to Buy
6-10 Gallon ATO Box - Not sure on ATO System - Need to buy

That's all I have planned right now. I'm hoping the Kessil A80 will be enough for the Triton Method.

Any thoughts, suggestion or tips?

looks solid. Smart ATO Micro (arond 120$ USD) is nice. I have heard tunze osmollator is also great

H80 for fuge you mean right? How much space fuge will be ?

I like that the Tunze's come with the pump. I have the nano one and I like it.

Tunze Osmollator seems to be the go to ATO. The price on the Smart ATO Micro is awful tempting though

Tunze also has an optical eye and a backup from what I remember. I would most likely spend the extra $80 and have the piece of mind of a backup sensor.

Fuge will be 5-6 gallons

the photoelectric sensor that smart ato uses is pretty robust, it wont suffer from salt creep and other issues. this is the same probe apex and many other water detection system uses. Micro ATOs form factor is also small, and it comes with pump.
