Advice: Don't rush to a conclusion always step back and take a look at the situation rather it be good or bad on your reef system then after a bit of research make an educated decision when moving forward! Doing this and taking slow will allow you to enjoy the build of your tank which will allow you to enjoy the system for years and years and years!
