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.
I have one and it is no problem with other fish, snails, shrimp, or SPS. Mine has picked at just about everthing else in the tank but didn't harm anything(Clams, softies, and LPS).
The fish that malulu gave you pics of are great fish.
Watchman may not be good choice as you suggest ...firefish don't occupy the same space generally so should be fine.
Smaller dwarf angels should be fine. They are super active and are generally reef safe...though they pick at everything in...
I saw that one but the school of them made me think $$$

I have one of those feeding my skimmer....works great. I always suggested the MJ900 due to lower energy then MJ1200 and they are bulletproof...
Are you interested in a major project or a semi-major project. I think that most folks here swear by the Glass-Holes kits that they use to drill the tank . That is pretty major. You can add an overflow without that and without drilling the tank but they have a greater chance of failure. There...
Flexible hose works, I have a ball valve no problems.
But that said why not just get some flexible PVC and clean up that return with one shot up to the bulkhead? Simple is better right.
The BTA may move up to the top of a rock closer to the lights. I don't think it is optimal but again with good bulbs it isn't that bad. It is not going to be a super problem overnight you might not get great growth but you can make it up by feeding it.
Yep what you have and if you add a skimmer/fuge you will be pretty good. Sooner or later you will need to move the hippo but for now your good. Glad things are working out.
