Looks like you're on the right track so far. What kind of skimmer and lighting are you going to use? Is it going to be a reef or a FOWLR?
 
If your running on a tight buget then you dont want to go reef because you need expensive lighting and expensive corals that die easly if your a beginner
 
Don't worry, the water will clear with time. This is normal. Where did you get the LR?
 
going with FOWLR...I'm not quite sure on lighting...Any good suggestions? the hood I have is for one flourencent bulb not 2. This morning it cleared up pretty good...still murky though. I got the live rock from WaltSmith...Will take some pix once it arrives.
