What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?

im getting ready to run into the lfs. got this 10 gallon put together but need a couple of things. anything else i need to know about that i should grab?
Walk me through what you've got in place / on hand already.
 
its a brand new fluval set up. im going to set it up in anticipation of getting a cbb next week. not for qt but more to focus on getting it eating well before it goes into the display. need to get a little heater. otherwise it looks like it has some sort of media included. looks like carbon. and it has a small pump for water movement. it is a saltwater set up. was just going to throw in a few pieces of rock from my main tank. 🤷‍♀️
 
Happy to be here! I heard that this is where all the cool kids hang.
Im sorry that you were given a false impression. But we're still happy you're here. I can put our names under our pictures if it would help.

Pick up a PVC elbow from your home improvement store dujour (ghetto cave), and add an air stone with a small pump (think fluval- nothing fancy). The addition of the O2 will aid with circulation, oxygenation, and help maintain a stable ph. That's about what I've got.

Edit: Also a pipette of sorts, or a baster. It'll help target feed without your fingers spooking it too much.

They're all here anyways, but I'm trying to get as much mileage out of this stupid reel as humanly possible, so here you go:

Ya no flashing or marks on it’s body. It’s like he sees himself and the fish he is looking at is a threat. I’ll try and find a mirror, thanks.
