Thank you! I learn something new about salt water every week it seems and it's exciting watching new life appear and grow in the tank. : )
I am behind my original target time frame for fish but I also don't want to want to jump the gun and make a very sad/expensive mistake.
 
Added my cleaning crew today! Here is the breakdown:

24 Assorted Hermits
40 Dwarf Cerith
17 Florida Cerith
28 Nassarius Vibex
12 Nerite Snails (Large)
7 Nerite Snails (Small - Medium)
1 Blue Leg Hermit Crab
10 Empty Hermit Shells
5 Medium/Larger Empty Hermit Shells
1 Scarlet Hermit Crab
 
I found a cheaper light that works better for my refugium! I put this light in and the algae grew faster in a few days then it did in weeks of having an LED light. I bought a grow light with a clamp from the hardware store and put an R40 bulb in it. All together this setup costs about $20.
