Ragga's new toy

YAY! Today I got my new 75g. reef ready tank! This is my second tank I actually started out with a nano that went from FOWLR to reef in a couple trips to the LFS all due to stow away corals on the LR.

Here is what I have lined up so far...

75g. Reef ready tank (an all glass with oak stand)
48" PC light fixture with 2 duel actintic and 2 full daylight bulbs
30 1/2" x 11 7/8" x 14 1/4" refugium with built in protien skimmer w/pump and 36w duel PC lighting
295 GHP powerhead w/rotating nozzel
300w submersible heater ( a Theo)
Visaqua water pump 3600 (1057 optimum GPH)
Duel outputs for return
Finally got myself a good refractometer too

Can anybody think of anything I missed (not counting odds and ends like scrubbers and nets which I have a collection of)?

sounds like a good start. but keep an eye on that hydor heater. there is a batch of them with defective themostat.....they won't shut off.

hehehe I haven't even gotten water in it yet, I've been putting everything in the tank still in boxxes and going down the checklist. I may actually get to paint the back tonight and set it up before bed so I can start my RO/DI on a marathon for the weekend. Small house and no extra faucets means bucket brigade from the bathroom for a few days.
