I started with better equipment after lesrning many years ago cheap stuff doesnt cut it.

Led lights to me a bit of leaning to get use to vs the 400mh lighting i used prior

Started the tank with adding 1 fish per week and zoas. Once i knew the tank was good to go started with lps and sps adds.
Started dosing instantly so levels were good, rather than waiting for corals
