The beginning
Here is a picture of the new beginning. I have not done this before and am going by research and help from friends, & people that have done this before.

 To Reef Central good start are you monitoring your ammonia and nitrate levels--this will help you keep track of the cycling

I don't notice any power heads from the picture--you are going to need flow in that tank--suggest a korilia 1 --it gives a more diverse turbulant flow rather then a straight line laminar flow from a maxijet
