    Need an opinion on my setup...

    Your lights are fine, add a skimmer ASAP. As for powerheads, I have a Hydor #1, and it is rated at 400 gph, my Maxi Jet 1200 is only rated at 295 gph, but it definately puts out alot more water than the Hydor.

    converting 2 55 gal tanks to 1 sump system

    Are the two 55's glass? I don't think it's recommended to drill tempered glass, just check on it. If you can yes I would drill and connect, one for equipment, and the other as a refugium perhaps?!

    Light Hours

    Wow Don, that is high tech! Don't your arms get sore lowering and raising your lights for four hours a day?! LOL Normal daylight hours in the tropical regions vary from 10 - 14 hours of sunlight a day, so just about anything inbetween is acceptable. Personally, my actinics come on an hour...

    pvc dry time?

    I would suggest doing a freshwater run on it before you attach it to your system to check for leaks.

    Hitchhiker ID

    It looks like a nudibranch, I'd look it up, whether to keep it or not depends on what you have in your tank, some of these guys eat coral.

    Nitrates

    I think that the root of your problem lies with your sand bed! 2 inches isn't enough for NNR (natural nitrate reduction), it is better to either go with 3/4 of an inch or less, or 3 inches or more.

    Adding sand on top of existing dsb?

    Yes you can add to it, but do it slowly, only 1/4th to 1/2 an inch at a time, spread out over a few weeks.

    Powerheads for wave makers

    I have the maxi jet 1200 and I did the mod on it for my 55g. Let me tell you, that thing ROCKS!!! It pushes water like nothing else I've seen. To tell you the truth it's almost TOO much flow for my 55 and it's unidirectional, I have 2 more power heads for variable water movement. As for...

    Id?

    Chaetomorpha

    I would put it in a refugium with a DSB.

    Southdown/aragonite sand in Puget Sound?

    Thanks, that's the problem! I could go buy the CaribSea for about the same amount as shipping would cost me over the internet, and not have to wait for it to arrive in the mail.
