So I finally got the tank cycle going after all the issues I had with the start up. First had it all up and running and discovered a leak on the back glass... Took it over to Eric at tx ocean aquatics to have it fixed and he did a great job. Then my skimmer was making too many bubbles and figured out it needed a valve on the air intake. Third my rodi wasn't making enough water and ordered a new membrane thinking the new old one was plugged. Turns out that wasn't the problem and found a tiny check valve was backwards on the membrane outlet. Ready to go I thought but no...had a leak on the return line at the bulkhead fitting. Happy to say all that is behind me now. Here's a pic with the moon lights. Thanks for all the help guys

Glad you got it all resolved.
Only thing I don't get is a Valve on the air intake from skimmer?
