Default new 90 gal reef question

Hi, just started 2 months ago a 90 gal tank. Have 324 watts of blue and white T5 lighting, refugium filter (with live rock frags in the sump), pump return is approx. 7 times an hour for tank turnover, sea clone 100 protein skimmer, 2 Koralia power heads to move water, 120 pounds of live rock, temp 78, SG 1.024, nitrate 0. Have several soft corals with 1 yellow tang approx 5" (had him 2 years), and 8 small reef compatible fish. Also, have a coral banded shrimp, 24 turbo snails, and 4 peppermint shrimp.My question is, is this enough to support a reef tank without any future problems? I haven't had any problems yet whatsoever, except that my chaeto is not growing in the refugium.

I did not mention that I had a 56 gal saltwater fish only and upgraded to the 90 reef also utilizing the marineland cannister filter from the 56 along with the refugium. I am planning on taking the cannister off in the next month or 2 when I am satisfied that the refugium will handle the load.

Any thought or comments are welcome. Trying to convince myself I'm doing everything right

Its nice, You have so good tank with lots of things, You know I like corals and turbo snails so much. And I think refugium will take load. So do it without any problem.
