75 gallon build

Remind me (because I’m too lazy to scroll all the way up. Lol), will this be a reef tank or a FOWLR? What type of fish are you looking at?

Live rock, fish, softies maybe later a few LPS.
That's my plan.
Water is cloudy because I just added water and substrate. Sump is running and overflow adjusted bean animal setup.

Apurplereef.com live rocks added, though I ended up also ordered 3 boxes of carabsea arches since I am not happy with the current aquascaping lol.
Will get this looking better in a couple days.

Ok, updated aquascape.
Thoughts please?

Tank looks great. Stand is nice and strong. My only concern was the valves used as I heard the basic valves can get stuck easily with the saltwater. If you have issues later you’ll want to get nicer valves. Great start!
