Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Take your time...let it cycle properly and make a plan for stocking.
1)clean up crew
2)fish
3)type of corals
Remember other then the upgrade ;D you have a limited amount of room...even when you buy the 100+ gallon tank you end up full of stuff and say how did that happen. ???
Just a side note....I think it is best to add your LR first then sand. I liked putting something on the glass ... I used cutting boards... another option is egg crate. If you have any sand burrowing critters they could in theory collapse your rocks if you put the sand down first.
I like the in sump pumps. More a matter of simplicity then anything. External pumps means you need to drill and few other things that I preferred in sump.
Making sure that everything fits is a very good idea.
Here is my fuge, skimmer, and general setup. No longer use coralife timer FYI.

Well I can say I like the new rockwork better. :-\
Shame for sure, it is a real kick in the pants to get a generator of some sort so that is a positive.
It is a cool crab glad it survived.

I have had good luck with them. You won't need tons of calcium with zoas and rics.
