Hi All. My First marine tank. Open to all suggestions. I am on day two of my 3ft tank setup. It used to be a 3ft freshwater tank. SO FAR i fully cleaned the tank by emptying the water using the gravel cleaner and of course this gave the gravel a really good clean. Then fully cleaned the filter ( Aquis 1200 series 2 ) and added new Matrix media and fully rinsed the existing pads. Then added new tap water with a double dose of Prime. I then today added 4 kg of red sea salt as directed by the guy at the LFS. I also bought a Serenity LED Refractometer. When added salt it brought out 7 or 8 freshwater worms from the gravel which quickly died. The local LFS said this will be perfect for kicking off things ( he mentioned the Dead prawn scenario which i gave read about before). So what next?
