Aquarium Advice Regular
Well it's been 4 weeks this past Sunday. I have 2 koralia 750's on top of 2 1700 rio pumps for flow. Also have coralife high output t5 lunar aqua light. It's a 65 gallon tank. Have about 30 pounds of live rock and 30 pounds of base rock. I also put 3 bags or caribsea live sand in at the same time. I do have one snail that was a hitch hiker and ive seen a white starfish one night. But has disappeared since. Also one crab. Thats it as far as i know. I look at the tank ALOT!!! Lol. Salinity is at 1.025 past 3 weeks. Temps stay between 76.5-77.5. Have not had my lights on at all during the 4 weeks. Tested Sunday (4th week) and got 0 ammonia 0 nitrites and 10 nitrates. Wondering if I am ok to start fish or should I go CUC first? I plan on a cardinal fish first. Then maybe a couple clowns after. But would like some feedback as to which to do first and if I can go ahead and start. Just to clarify I did not add ammonia with shrimp or bottle or fish. Just let the live rock and live sand sit in tank with flow for 4 weeks. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
