Aquarium Advice Regular
So I just purchased a used 95 Wave Tank. I really like the tank but am a little confused on how to upgrade from my 55 to the 95. I plan on putting the tanks in different locations so I can start the 95 without having to tear down the 55 first.
The 95 wave tank has an overflow that is plumbed into a Pro Clear Aquatics System 2 section acrylic tank. I'm thinking they call it a 75 Wet/Dry filter system with a return pump. Can I use this as a sump? I bought it from someone who had it set up as a freshwater tank and was just using the small acrylic tank below for a filter with carbon and a filter sponge. Will this work on a saltwater tank as well?
I plan to get the tank started this coming weekend. I'm going to buy 50 lbs of dry rock and a few pounds of live rock and a bag of sea gravel and fill the tank about 1/2 way. I'm going to let it stay 1/2 full for about a month to seed the rock and then I plan on adding the live rock, the sandbed and the water from my 55 gallon when the tank is cycled. Will this work?
My 55 is a FOWLR and I plan on setting the 95 up the same way. I don't plan on getting into corals at least not the first year. I'm pretty new to the hobby just started back in October and so any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
