Thank you for all of your suggestions and comments so far! I hope that we can all benefit each other by becoming e-friends on this board.
Here are the details on my complete setup that I have written down and what I have pictured in my mind.
By the End of this week: Have Tank Plumbed, running with heated RO/DI salt water with powerheads running.
By the end of this month: Have proper lighting purchased and running, purchase 100+ lbs of uncured live rock, purchase live sand ((How much should i buy?)). Start Cycling the Tank with the uncured live rock
Once the Cycle is complete: Purchase in-sump skimmer, research various reactors ((Can anyone give me some quick insight on the reactors out there as a starter)) Start with some easy to keep corals ((Can anyone recommend some easy starter corals))
Thank you all in advance!
