Well if you don't have adequate flow yet I'd recommend making that the first prioriy

I would definitely wait for Black Friday sales on big ticket items like light, and doesn't look like much for CUC to eat. Have you made out your fish and coral list? Bet you'll get some good suggestions when you post it.
 
Powerhead! You need to get some flow going in the tank!
Lights are not a priority unless you plan to jump right into corals...fish don't care about the light!
CUC -- you need something for them to eat first...get them just as you get your light! When you turn on that light, the algae is going to start.
Fish -- not a bad choice to start out slowly...did you cycle with that clown in the tank?

WHAT?!? I did not even think about that. Or even know that there would be black Friday sales. Thank you
 
All suggestions above are good especially wait for Black Friday sales, but first thing I would invest into would be better test equipment. API are marginal at best. Test 3 times to get an average.
 
Also, in your sump, it looks kind of empty. Do you have a skimmer or plans to do a fuge?
Yes planing on both. Refuge first. I was thinking of chaeto algae than some Lava rock with whats in the there now (rubble rock)

Thank you. What test equipment do you recommend?
