Hello all, I am in the process of learning all I can for my saltwater tank.
( I have a 55g, with 20lbs live rock, fluval 403, 2 200watts heater, and a bak-pak protein skimmer, and I am in the early stages of cycling the tank)
My question is about the fresh water dip. I have heard to do this ( with the fresh water being the same ph and temp.) with new fish before entering them in the tank. Just want to make sure that this Will not stress the fish too much. Also should I get a UV sterlizer? Just want to keep my fish ( looking at snowflake eel, some sort of lionfish ( not sure yet), huma trigger).. thanks for all your help!
