Hey theo, welcome to AC! Sounds like a nice setup. As you've already said it's quite a stockload but glad to see you're planning an upgrade. My only suggestions would be to add some more liverock, 1lb per gallon or more is generally reccomended, make sure you do regular cleanouts of the canister filter (nitrate factories otherwise), and you don't mention any powerheads so I'd presume your flow may be a little on the low side.

Good luck, you'll find loads of useful advice and friendly people on here! :)
 
Hello............:welcome:
 
Welcome to AC!
 
thanks for the welcome. sorry forgot to post i have 3 powerheads rated at 1200glh each. I'm not using my canister filter often just after cleaning my tank to clear the water. My parameters are all excellent as well.
