Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
I'm just not thinking this cheato is going to survive all of this.
I'm upset because I was going to surprise @Katrina71 with this cheato tumbler idea I had but I'm so bad at making things:loudly-crying-face: and now I have a light, no cheato and salsa all over my phone :loudly-crying-face:
 
I would say they ship once a week or 10 days. Based on rating and # of items sold, I'd bet it's fine.
OK good now I feel better.
 
How is the tang?
Doing good. The bite marks don’t look any worse! Eating good. And enjoying life in the big tank. Lots of nori

That stuff can survive.
 
I think I've decided against a tang in ours. 30" cube would not be the best. If we come across a rescue, maybe?
Have always wondered about the cube.
Was going to buy a 112 ext.
I think it was 36 inch cube??
Cool tank but maybe weird for a tang?
What about one of the smaller ones?
Rescue would be happy with it though.
 
Okay yall im struggling. Im 100% overthinking this.

I got the RODI booster Aquatech 8800 for BRS RODI 100 GPD. Does this seem correct?
Waste is the one on the right going out. Watched BRS video and it seems this is how they did it but it doesn’t seem right.

Is the pump pulling water through out the entire system or is it pushing water through it faster?

As far as I know it boosts the pressure through the system.
I don't believe the pump can pull.
Could be wrong but mine flows through.

Assure inlet and outlet are at proper location or you'll get back-pressure. Here is an example of routing of booster lines
