Aquarium Advice Newbie
Ok I have always loved marine aquariums so I decided to start a mini reef. The tank itself has been up for 8 month or maybe longer after many mistakes from taking the advice from the LFS around here I think I am finally going on the right track. I have a few mushroom anenomies, some starburst polyps and a small stalk of coral that looks like a cnidarion called heliofungia actiniformis from what I read it is the hardest to take care of but mine seems to do very well. I even have a chocolate chip starfish that I have found out is not reef safe but mine had never really gone after any corals and will come to the top of the water and put it's arm out when hungry. Anyway I am trying to find out if I have a good setup for my tank since
I soon would like to get a clam. My current set up is as follows:
-18 gallon tall glass aquarium
-prizm skimmer deluxe
-Fluval 304 canister filter
-probaly 25-30 lbs of live rock
-36 watts JBJ PC soon hoping to find a retrofit to attach to the canopy I recently bought 96watt PC I think
I am doing weekly water changes and would love advice on any aspect of the aquarium you guys and gals might have for me I would love this to be a successful hobby not a disaster!! equiptment idea's, livestock idea's etc.
