https://www.amazon.com/New-Marine-Aquarium-Michael-Paletta/dp/1890087521/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1452143680&sr=8-1&keywords=the+new+marine+aquarium I think this is probably the best book, even after having multiple other books and 10+ years of saltwater aquariums I still find myself going back to it for minor refreshes.
Bigger the aquarium the smaller fluctautions so despite thinking smaller will be easier, thats actually wrong. When it comes to filtration Live Rock (I think rule is a # per gallon) also live rock. I wanna say on lighting you want 2-3 watt per gallon. I suggest you start off with some hardy fish (Nemo) and do a FOWLR (Fish Only With Live Rock) then when you feel more comfortable add some of the easier corals (Mushrooms, Some Zooanthoids, Leathers, Zenia)
goto www.reefcentral.com and research FOWLR also get multiple opinions
I use an existing fan and this temperature controller to turn the fan on when the water is above 78F. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B015E2UFGM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_8ZHNAbEYSH8NX
I am not sure if you are asking how to do this as well as if it's ok to do it but Check out this relay.

I use it to trigger my Garage door from a Pi. It also works with an Arduino.
