Id rate coraline Algae as potentially your biggest problem. Although I have had my tank setup now for over a year and rarley see it. Just lucky.

Salt creep is an ongoing pain , constant wiping down argh.

In your initial months the various algae explosions will haunt you too, as long as your patient you will work through those in stages.

Nothing more satisfying then owning a well estabilished reef tank
