Happy Belated Thanksgiving. I am currently the process of cycling my new 150G tank and 40 breeder. The plan is to have the 150 as a reef tank and the 40b to be a display fuge. Both of the tanks drain into a 55 gallon sump. I have ~70lbs of Dry Rock and 5 lbs of Live rock in the tank with another 100lbs of Dry rock coming on Monday. Equipment 2 x 32" Reef breeders Photon LED (On its way) 1 x 4x 39W Fishneedit T5 (Will us over Fuge...Maybe a little overkill) Mag 12 Return to Display Quiet One 3000 Return to Fuge 2 x 200w Jager heaters (Hopefully single heater isn't strong enough to over heat tank by itself.) BM NAC 3.5 (From old 40B build. Underpowered but will upgrade in time) SPECTRAPURE® MAXCAP RO/DI SYSTEM W/ MANUAL FLUSH - 90 GPD I am still deciding on what powerheads. I am contemplating taking chances with 2 Jabeo WP-40s. Thanks for checking it out.

You shouldn't have any real spikes as the bacteria should spread to the other rocks when you increased bio-load (feeding). But like everything else in this hobby, bad things happen quick. So stock slowly and keep an eye on everything. Your bacteria will increase as load increases.

I am pretty sure that is Brandon429 on nano-reef.com. The vase picos are very cool especially with all the par30 and par38 bulbs.
