I will be doing it over the next 2 weeks, got to build support beams under the tralier for where I want the tank first. Once I get everything moved over I will post some pics to show how it went. should maybe get some before pics too.

I will be able to buy more rock in a few weeks to a month, I was planning on starting to add new life to the tank about a week or two after I added the new rock, aiming for about $100 worth on my next outing, maybe some more after that but I figure I would need to setup a sump/refugium next.

a bioload of 2 O.Clowns and 6 or 7 hermits really throw it off that bad?

well keeping the 25 gallon setup while cycling the 55 gallon tank is not an option, I would have nowhere to put my freshwater fish. Also I mentioned that I wouldnt be able to get alot of rock right away, only bit by bit, i have about 20lbs in my 25gallon that I will transfer over and got someone...

so you mean putting the fish in right away along with the new/old sand and LR?

I'm switching my setups around, over time I lost some of my fish, some to power outage, some to broken filter tube and them getting sucked up, and some just... die. I haven't been replacing them. I have a small enough number in my 55 gallon now to where I can switch my 55 Freshwater with my 25...

I plan the fish now but dont plan on gettin them any time soon, I know I need to let my tank mature more before I add more. My tank was cycled quick wit the help of BioSpira, I know some people are aginst it but it did work for me. adding 2 fish alil over a week after I added a single one wont...

well Im not 100% sure if all of those supplies would be able to be used for SW but I dont see why not, as long as you keep an eye on your heater so it dont get to hot, if I remember right 10 gallons get 50watts. The heater I have in my 29 SW is 100w and I usually have to run it below 74 to get...

ok I am checking to see if my current stocking plans will be ok. I have a 29 Gallon Nano, 40lbs of Live Sand, 10lbs of Base Rock and 5lbs of LR. I have 1 unknown hitchhiker crab along with 5 blue legged hermits and some kind of snail that hitched. My fish are 2 O. Clowns and a Green Chromis. On...

it is hiding now, cant get to it. it was furry if thats what u mean by brissles

thx for the ID, any idea what the worm is?

well I didnt get the tank I thought I was getting, had to go smaller, with a 29 gallon. I got everything set up last night, and some of the hitchhikers from the LR even showing their selves already. here are some pics. gonna let it cycle for a while first before adding anything, only letting the...

I will be checking ebay for all of my supplies including the tank itself, I have seen many tanks over 100 gallons for less than $150 that includes alot of the suplies I need. Once I have a better idea of how many gallons I will have I will come back to get help sytarting at the very begining...

what is the rule for stocking SW tanks, FW has the inch per gallon thing, what would SW be?

actually the more I think about it the more I am thinking of going with a bigger tank, atleast a 75 gallon, will be using different types of live rock to create a bigger diversity ion my tank. I want an awesome setup. If I have to choose between the clownfish I think I will go with the black and...
