I did a combination like some are suggesting.
Out of 180 lbs of rock I got 120 from a NJRC member, 25lbs base from Trop(heavy but cheaper had a nice flat shape to it), 30lb from my old tank various LFS, 15 lbs from another NCRC member who was downsizing with some corals.
Upside was win win...
Teks don't have moonlights, the T5s that I have do but they didn't come from PA. Jan should be PA group buy yes. I need to check with one of our group buy venders tmrw. Unfortunately life got in the way this weekend. Some do some don't basically. You can get add on moonlights Wingo makes them...

15% off during group buy is even better.
Thanks again. If you need more I always have a it to go. Might suggest putting a small power head in your fuge cheato likes some water movement. I think that is why mine does well have a lot of surface movement. I know I can find your house the next time too ;).
I have two 4s and two MJ900s, the MJs are on a controller. The standard Koralia are not controllable. I had a K2 on my nano...they have been very reliable and inexpensive to run for me.
Seems to me it should not need a stand to hold it into place? What about at the top is there a rim? Maybe to make things safe he should include a rim on the bottom too? I saw his handmade L shaped tank and it is pretty impressive, I wouldn't blame him(or take any blame either) but I would...
Re: My Oceanic Tech 120 and a request for input.
Things are going pretty well. No major updates unless you want to see algae in my QT tank.
I will give one good pic that I took though.
Try to do weekly water changes. 10-20% is best.
Don't go for a HOB filter you have a decent skimmer. Fuge is nice because it is like adding some extra water volume plus some biological filtration. In addition the fuge lets you have an area to grow pods ect. Check out what you can find. There are...
Yeh the actual RODI units are a pain. They have adapters to hook up to your sink. Maybe buying the water at a LFS will be easier but then you still have containers for the water.
Koralias do have cords yes, Same as other powerheads only bigger, they are good on electricity though. Always give...
You cannot use the standard Koralia on a wave maker. They do sell a new version that you can....but...there is always a but...they are a lot more expensive. I have that wave maker with two MJ900 and two Koralia 4s in my 120. I like the results so far. Perhaps as a suggestion you could use a...
My fuge is set up like that with a Mag 12 ...the water flows pretty quick across the top but lower it is pretty stagnate...I am starting to get some pods growning now in the fuge at least. Cheato likes good flow by the way if you read up on it.
