Aquarium Advice Regular
Dumb Question for a newbie...All of the "How to start your saltwater tank" FAQ that I've seen on-line say that it's OK to fill your aquarium with fresh water initially and mix the salt directly in the tank since there's no fish in the tank. Buuuuuuuut, this sounds like a bad idea if I'm putting Live Rock in the tank. I assume that I should be mixing the saltwater outside of the tank and THEN adding it to the tank with the Live Rock.
OR
would it make more sense to add the sand, and then add freshwater, then add salt...THEN add my Live Rock?
This seems like it's an important detail, so I thought I better ask.
