Should I restart?

@Lavey29 here is what the surface of my tank looks like with my return and powerhead.

Looks good to.me

Here is the best pic I could get of the tank due to not really having a filter lens yet. Again, the zoas are not looking good at the moment but I'm hoping I can change that ASAP.

Nice looking tank setup. Keep at it. Tank has the potential to look great once it is established!

FYI any piece of equipment in your tank can have battery backup. While I am a fan of MP10 and have one and a MP40, I do not want you to think these are the only pumps or equipment that can have battery backup.

You can get a battery backup stand alone unit like this, it’s $155 with coupon and you get power outlets and usb outlet

My return pump is approx 20 watts and it will run it for 12 hours

Agreed! I run a computer UPS for my circulation pump.
