what do you all suggest for flitration? skimmer? heater? chiller? can anyone explain how to build the sump for me.. we should get started on that.. sooon. wooohooo..
we are going to use live sand,, two bags of that should be enough, or can we add some crushed coral to it too?? will that be too much? we are going to be getting live rock too.. how long do we wait to put it in there..
questions about the salt mixing & stuff too..
do i put the sand in first, then the salt, or mix the salt in the water then add the sand? how long til we can add fish/rock?
water questions... where can i get SAFE water? i live in the country, so i dont know how good that would be to just take it off tap.. ?? & my friends live in the city, & that probly has clorine or whatever in it?? what should i use, or how do i get the right kind of water without spending a TON onf money?
sorry so many questions, but im flustered.. please help me!!! =] *eek* LOL
