Ive had a 75 gallon tank with a ruby 36 trigger sump running for about a month now, fish and cuc were added about 1.5 weeks ago. The equipment were used and the tank was cleaned and scraped of coralline. All of the fish and coral were bought from my LFS, Ocean Gallery in NJ.
I also have a large refugium with the algaebarn starter pack and my chaeto is growing with the Growstar ufo led on amazon, so far grows really fast. I also bought a cheap $10 pump on amazon to put in the refugium. Changing filter socks every 4 days. Chemi-pure blue is also in for nitrates and phosphates. I test my parameters with red sea test kits, and a hanna salinity meter. I feed them reef roids, omega one seaweed for now, and spirulina brine shrimp
