Heya,

I've been watching your website for 3 weeks now, and it seem like the place to be if your in to aquariums.

A little about me:
20, Computer Science Major. Own a computer repair firm. New to aquariams.

Possibly changing my major after I get my ASSOC in Computer Science to Marine Biology. Any good programs to recommend, and not just cause your an alumni of that school?

The good Stuff:
55 gallon FO Saltwater tank.
2 Silver Lyre Tail Mollies
2 Marble Mollies
2 *Young* Maroon Clowns, haven't even established who is female or male yet, I think. But they sleep together!!!
Fake Anemone in the from of a child's Rubber Toy, Food Contact Safe. ***but will it decompose in Saltwater and poison my fish????????????
SeaClone 100 Protein Skimmer-;( best part about this is the power head
Ehiem 2236 Filter, soon to be replaced with a DIY sump.

Tank has been up and running for about 2 weeks, Cycling is beginning with a .25 ppm ammonia this morning. I am getting some Bacteria from a guy here in town.
No LFS, only a LPS called PETCO. Bad News here folks. If i have to I will get bacteria here. but I am going to try to avoid it.


But I do have a question, What are you using as an oxygen source?
I killed 7 fish, on accident due to suffocation when I removed my skimmer to modify it.

And then fiddling with it today my fish started gulping air at the top of the tank till I plugged it back in and got micro bubbles going.

Welcome to AA. I am a freshwater guy but if you start a thread in the saltwater forum, it will be seen sooner. Not everyone goes into this forum.
