If anyone has any comments or constructive criticism feel free to post down below. I’m open to different coral & fish livestock ideas as well. This is my first saltwater aquarium & I’ve tried to absorb as much knowledge as possible but of course, may have overlooked some things you fellas can help me with. I plan on filling it up with water this weekend & beginning the cycling stage
