My coral growth and tank pictures

Looks amazing! Do you have a list of evolved equipment/procedures along the way, that you felt helped better tweak your system, or did you pretty much keep it the same, from the start?
 
So my system hasn't changed much since I started it, the only thing I have changed is my lighting. I did have good growth with my old lighting but my new lights are better and I'm getting better results. Here is what I'm running.

Tank:
*90 Gallon Tank with a 30 Gallon sump
*140lbs of live rock and 120lbs of live sand

Lights:
*Neptune systems lunar simulator module (5 leds)
*AI Sol Super Blue Leds (2)
*AI Director
*I run my lights from 740am to 940pm, (7:40am-9:40am Blue only)(9:40am-7:40pm 80% everything)(7:40pm-9:40pm blue only)

Computer:
*Neptune Sytem Aqua controller
*JBJ Auto Top off system (5gallon Jug)

Powerheads:
*Vortech MP40 (1) I run nutrient transport mode
*Hydor Koralia 1400 (1)
*Hydor Koralia 425 (1)

Filtration:
*30 gallon sump with 5lbs of live sand, 5lbs of rock and chaeto
*Eshopps 120 cone skimmer
*Just puchased a Precision Marine Reverse flow calcium reactor, will be here Monday

Dosing:
*Everyday I dose 1ml of Iodide
*Twice a week I dose 3 capfuls of Fuel from Aquvitro
*Twice a week I feed corals Kent Chromaplex

Water Changes:
*15 gallons bi-weekly
*I use Red Sea Coral pro, 1lbs 7.5oz per 5 gallons to get the numbers I want

Parameters:
*PH 7.7-7.9
*Ca 1420-1460
*Salinity 1.026ppm
*DKH 7

The biggest thing for me is dont stray from your plan, patience is the key.

Thanks everyone for the comments
