it should go away pretty much by the end of the night, but, you might occasionally hear it every so often, but after a week, they're full broken in and you will swear that they aint even workin, they're that quiet

The tank has this aweful smell coming from it like a dead skunk, is that normal? How long until that smell will go away? I also smell some burt rubber stuff too. I hope those filters are working like you all said they are.
Oh, I forgot to mention, I also bought some crushed coral substrate that I poured in on top of the live sand. That's ok, right?

that smell is perfectly normal, everyone who keeps saltwater fish usually has at least 4 air fresheners in the room the tank is in

6 nemos
2 doris
1 black tip reef shark
1 tiger shark
1 undulated trigger
2 horseshoe crabs
1 blue ribbon dragon eel
35 blue leg hermit crabs
35 turbo snails
2 green brittle stars
Any other recommendations? I'll upgrade to a 90 in five years or so - so I wonder what else I could keep in there more towards the upgrade..??

you could very easily keep 2 of them in your 90g, and they'll eat those goldfish your gonna be feeding, so when u get them, just make sure you up the order to the full 1500, but feed 1500 every week at that point

I've heard those Blue Ring Octopi are great algae-eaters. Maybe add a couple as part of your clean-up crew.
good call pbnj! a trio would be awesome.

How about adding some Freshwater Mollies to? Add a splash of color.
you don't even have to acclimate them, just dump 'em right in.
they will adjust, they might try to sleep at first, like the others, but they will come around once you stir with the wooden spoon again!
keep us updated! sounds like you are off to a great start!!
