Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
You can't see the fish but there's a betta, 4 adult guppies and several baby guppies, 6 chili rasbora and some pink ramshorn snails. If I get too many guppies I will move them into tanks I have at home.
 
No I have too many of them. Lol I can post pictures for you. Here is the office tank is a little cloudy because I moved some stuff around and switched out the driftwood for a different piece this morning. I'm going to the lfs on lunch to see if they have any plants or fish I like for it.
That's really nice! I used to have a 125 planted tank.. I had a CO2 system on it and everything. I'll see if I can find pics of it... it was quite some time ago... like 20 years.

I have a 125 gallon, a 120 gallon, a 75 gallon, a 55 gallon, a 40 gallon and a 5 gallon freshwater planted tanks at home plus my saltwater that's 125.

Guppies are like rabbits, plants in the tank help the young survive

Yes they are I have a betta in the tank as well too help control the population. I would say each time they have babies only 2-3 make it. The tank did have a very thick mat of a grass like plant called dwarf Sagittarius completely covering any bare spot of the substrate but I had to thin it out last week.
 
My AIO is ready for water except still tossing around the return pump, I do have the Sicce multi 800 (220 GPH) on hand. I used it to mix salt in 5 Gal buckets. I may rinse the tank and fill it, will see how this pump performs.
