JoJo, that is more or less the time line I followed with my 90 gallon tank. I will admit that I went swifter on the "sensitive sessile inverts" guideline given and lost 2 BTAs. I added my third BTA at about 1 year and it's doing well. In the 1 1/2 years my tank has been running, I have only lost one fish to unknown causes and 3 to carpet surfing before I installed my anti-jump guard. IMO, Lee's guidelines are more than acceptable and desirable for a healthy, stress-free reef tank.

Lee, do you have any information on "Old Tank Syndrome"?
