Just ensure you have stable pH and on the high side. Cool water is preferred.

I have lots of coral chips in the filter and I add Seachem lake salt during water change. Those sand I used is neutral. Deco depend on the type of fishes you keep.

Overhead filter for this tank.

Since your gravel is coarse, then you need to avoid sand shifter.
