Nice list bro..shd see a nice nano reef tank coming up soon.. :)

imho, ur light is powerful enough to keep sps liao..for return pump, there are many good brand to choose from..I feel that u need to get a min 1000lph pump as to run ur chiller under ur tank then up (choose those pump that can set different flow rates de)..for biomedia, u can choose too (marinepure sphere, siporax, biohomme, bacteria king, etc..)..small tank dun need a lot yea :) ..u wont need those chemical filtration ba..weekly wc shd replenish those depleted elements ba..if need to, can dose those supplements too..cheers n happy reefing :)

picked up some goodies from East ocean today for the tank arriving tomorrow. Guy at east ocean was super generous and friendly, certainly suggest you go there.. Only had the sw-4 in stock, quite overpowered but will run it on the lowest mode, overall very impressed with the small profile size of the sw-4

yes planning on adding 5 lb of sand.. thing is sw-2 and sw-4 lowest flow rate is still the same of 500lph... Will test and experiment, but I hope it won't blow the sand around..

Bro, are u gg to add sand?

A reefer trim the blade of his rw-4 (lowest speed same at 500lph) in his 10g tank..this allow to have slower flow yea..

SW4 i find it too strong do go for Sw2

Bro ur SW4 aka RW4? :) 

RW4 n SW2 lowest flow rate is the same at 500lph..the diff btw both are RW4 highest speed is 4000lph vs SW2 2500lph n SW2 shorter by 1cm..

Both r too strong for 10g i find..

Testing for leakage, but also testing the light and sw-4 at the same time :)))

 

also was surveying tank and found a fairly large crack in the outlet connection, a bit disappointing but not a huge blow.. Sent edmund a quick msg seeing if theres something to do about it, but not too much of a worry..

Will be picking up NSW tmr, Very excited :))
