Jumping back into the hobby after 22 years off. Decided the go with the UNS R120 and it is absolutely stunning and well planned. Will be a slow go as I build intentionally. Starting with 100 lbs of base rock from TBS, 20 lbs live sand and some sludge for the cryptic refugium alongside a regular chaeto fuge. Will add another 100 lbs of premium rock from TBS after the cycle. Plan to have a 3" sandbed in the tank, not for denitrification, but for the sifters.

Equipment:
Sicce 7.0 pump
Orbit 4
2 X Etherial 8
Helio dual heater 2 X 350W
Apex controller with energy bar, MXM and DOS.
Deltect 400i skimmer

That's a great system; good luck with your build!
