Ok hear we go, i set up my 40g hex stretch yesterday. didnt have anything but base rock in the tank and saltwater bought from my LFS btw i finaly found a good LFS guy. talked to him for a couple hrs yesterday. anyway the people i bought my hex from called me this morning they finaly sold their home and are moving next week, well they had a 10g biocube running for 2yrs well they didnt want to take it so they ask me if i wanted it. i said yes ofcorse it has 2 paired clowns 25lbs of live rock maybe more, a ton of purple mushrooms and a few small corals. i talked to the LFS guy this is the same guy that the parents on the 10g and my 40g go to. well the LFS guy said i could add that tank to my new 40g with no problems he asked me what my temp and KH levels were seeing how i just added the SW yesterday they were the same as the stores, perfect. is this a good idea? im just worring about the clowns will the suffer till they adjust or will anything happen? BTW the parents of the 10g bought the same SW from the same store. i brought it home in buckets. i added the LR and their were a few crabs on it and they seem to be doing ok. their crowling around doing their thing. oh the LFS guy gave me some SmartStart to add.. and i did. any ideas? i just dont want the animals to suffer..
