Nitrate Checker vs Dip Strips

Now I know everyone says you can't rely on the dip strips for accurate readings, and I'm to here to agree! I recently received a Hanna NO3 HR Checker (thanks @RiptideAquaculture !!!) and ran my nitrates. I had been using some Amazon dip strips to give me a basic ball park and they were just...

I'd love the Deltec 600. I've never had a german engineered skimmer. I love the tunze products so the skimmer would be a great addition.

bonus 2: the vf5000. I currently had a clarisea 300 but haven't installed it yet. Could the vf5000 replace it?....

bonus 4: I actually have a kamoer x1 doser but wouldn't mind an upgrade to the x1 pro.

Fish Stocking for 125

Alright, so I'm getting ready to set up a 125 gallon mixed reef tank. I'm trying to decide on stocking. My wife wants a Refugium with Macros and I'll be running a skimmer (Bubble Magus Curve 7) so I'm thinking I might need to stock it a little heavy just so I don't have to dose a lot of NO3...

Bonus entery #1 Reviewed the two series of Skimmers and the 600ix would be one that would best fit my needs at the moment. The largest tank I have at the moment is 75 gal it fits right in the 600s range. I also don't have all the fancy controllers and the electrical consumption is lower, so again it best fits my needs.

Bonus 2: The VF 5000. Probably would fit my sump best. I still use filter socks. I wonder if the fleece rolls are better?

Plumbing 2 "Sumps" Together

Ok, so I purchased a RS200 for my 125 gallon tank that I'm setting up. The shop I purchased it from says it may not be big enough to handle the pumps shutting off in the case of a power outage (or if I shut it off to feed). I haven't tested it yet, but I do have a sump on the 75 that I'm...
