Saltie
Aquarium Advice Newbie
Just wanted to say hi and tell you a little about new tank.
72 gal and my set up so far is...First my husband does not do anything small and he has built me a sump and a water staging system in the basement. The water will go through an RO unit to a 40 gallon Rubbermaid container in the basement where the water will be preprocessed before getting pumped upstairs to the tank. He has placed a switch under the tank to pump the water up to the salt tank which has a 20gallon long sump tank. The tank has been drilled and we are just waiting for a few more components before getting started.
My rock is being cured and some of my fish have been ordered and are in quarantine.
I have ordered a skimmer but I have heard that I may not need one. I was curious on what some of you guys think of skimmers.
My fish so far...
Dottyback
Grammas
Clownfish
Tang(Powder Blue and Yellow)
I do know that I have to be careful w/the Grammas and was told to get the Gramma first and make sure it's use to frozen food before I get a clean up crew. I also heard that if the Dottyback and Grammas are close in color that could be and issue. Any feedback would be appreciated
The more I know the better I feel.
Well I guess that was more then a little. Sorry just excited!!
