New to the hobby

Hello, I am new to the hobby and am starting out a bit differently than most. I bought a tank from my LFS that was already fairly established.
Here is what it came with:
~40G cube with stand and sump
Simplicity skimmer
Simplicity return pump
Various Coral
Some established liverock
A couple of snails/brittle stars.

What I have added:
Hydra 32HD
Nero 3 Wavemaker
BioSpheres
CUC from Reef Cleaners
2 Tiger Conches
2 Bumblebee Snails for some vermetid snails I have seen.

I am experiencing some coral die off I am thinking due to the stress of moving the tank and also the placement of some of the coral (cyphastrea encrusting rock toward the top of the tank), but there are plenty of mushrooms and some palys that seem to be happy thus far.
