Wherever you drill it...ensure your sump has the capacity to hold the tank water drained to that point...on my systems I drilled them right below the water line...on my 90, it is so close that it sometimes sucks a little air with the spray from it...

Hair algea...and a light starved yellow polyp colony...but I could be wrong...

Most likely as mentioned pods... Highly doubtfull on your frozen food theory...most are sterilized which would kill any living creatures, and I would think eggs would be in there as well...

Your filtered water probably will not remove the ions from the water which, some are not good for the marine environment... I see in your ID you have FW tanks as well...the marine environemnt with the extensive lighting and nutrients is a breeding ground for nuisance algaes...unlike your FW, one...

What color is the cloudiness? White or Green?

This is only sand colonized with bacteria...it has an expiration date...and as long as it is within the expiration date, and wet, it should be ok...as for the instant cycling...no such thing... One thing to consider with this type of sand...how was it stored prior to your purchase...especially...

Virtually every living creature in your system will consume O2 which will create amonia as the waste...

Even with the 4, 2x6's as the span...I would be concerned not so much as them breaking, but the sag they could develope under the constant weight...that sag could affect the seams of your tank if it is glass.

You will probably notice a decrease once your start using the RO/DI water...

..."on a crazy train"...

Do you vacume you crushed coral? How deep is the CC? Do you rinse your bio-balls? Do you have a cleanup crew?

Let your nitrites and amonia settle and level off for a few days...

When keeping seahorses, you must be very dedicated to their care, and tank...there are issues with other fish in a seahorse tank...mainly, the seahorse is a slow and deliberate eater...it wont just lunge after food like a fish.. This is where the compatability issues come in. I have kept...

I would think the tang and possibly the two clowns would put some stress on a butterfly.

I just paid over 300.00 for a non-drilled 90...sounds like a good deal to me.
