New reef tank!!!! Finally bit the bullet!

So after a lot of looking and thinking I bit the bullet and purchased today! I'm now the proud owner of a Coralife Biocube 16 LED with mathing stand and so far I love it. Added 10lbs of Caribsea Live Sand and 10lbs of Caribsea Rock and filled it up with filtered and UV sterilized sea water. Really excited to get this thing going and start adding stuff though I will be patient. Look for frequent updates from me as things start happening and many many questions. Thank you all for getting me to this point.

**It's pretty clear already but pictures are hard as you all know**

Always remember the following rules:
Only bad things happen fast.
Test AND record your parameters.
Redundancy is a good thing with tests and any control devices.
Valves and unions in the right places can make maintenance easer.
A wet dry vac is a good thing to have handy.
