New Member FOWLR??
Welcome back to the hobby and to AA... I'm no expert but 5lbs of LR in a 55G does not sound like enough... My understanding is at least one lb for each G.- Raimond

Thermometers
I have two digital's of the same brand, one on each end of my DT. They are off by 2*. To see if they were the same I put the probes together and sure enough they were 1.5* differant. My chiller is displays another degree higher than the digitals. I just average the 2 and use the final number.- Raimond

How do you name your fish?
My puffer is "Chompers", my large Maroon clown is "Starbuck" not sure why, the smaller one is "Little Buck".. My convict goby is "Stripe" as he has a stripe across his nose. I hade another convict that died, he was "Dot" because of his nose coloring. The rest look too much alike to tell apart..- Raimond

+1 on the test kit and the fish-less cycle. I run my salinity a bit higher than yours. Are you using RO/DI water? You may get some replies on the crushed coral...- Raimond

Starting again
Welcome back to fish keeping and to AA... The "rules" are from lessons learned... In the end, you will have the final say on your path to success. What size tank are you planning on? Lots of space to put one now! You sold the piano! What are you going to replace it with? A portable keyboard...- Raimond

Welcome to AA The most difficult part is the wait for a cycle to complete. How did you start the cycle? Did you get a water test kit yet? What size tank? Any LR(live rock) or LS (live sand) used? What are your plans for the tank? FOWLR (fish only with live rock)? Reef?- Raimond
