Thank you to everyone who has helped me as I have pondered the best stocking for my upgraded reef tank.
I will have lots and lots of coral

- Carbon Reactor (Should I do GFO?)
- Reef Octo Regal 200INT 8" Skimmer https://www.bulkreefsupply.com/regal-200int-8-internal-protein-skimmer-varios-reef-octopus.html
- Seachem Matrix Rocks

Planned CUC
- 2x Skunk Cleaner Shrimp

The only thing that grabs my eye as a possible negative is the Semilavartus butterfly. There is a good possibility of coral nipping with Semis.
