great build man! If you still haven't got any cleaners, reefcleaners.org is a great place. I would rec starting with the quick crew package that is 1/2 to 3/4 of your current tank size to ensure each animal finds enough food to live

I got a few snails but I need to make a nice order maybe next weekend. Thank you so much for taking the time to look and to give a sugestión on the clean up crew.

Haven’t read your build yet but would like to know how you mounted the ecotech drivers with just a little hole for the wire. Isn’t your wire from the power head hard wired in the driver? I have been scratching my head how I could do it

The wires in the controller can be removed you just have to be really careful and don’t pull from the wires here are some pictures of what they look like

I really like your set up. the cabinet on the right is a great idea. I also like the control cabinet and the way the wires are hidden, super clean. Great job.
It’s nice and clean but don’t look in back of it lol it a mess lol. Thank you for looking.
