Aquarium Advice FINatic
Hi guys!
I recently posted about setting up a new 10g, but I decided to ditch the 10g and go with a 20g to start off. I got this setup today and got it running tonight. It's still a bit cloudy but you can get an idea! I'm going to fill it up with more rocks as it progresses, but I think I'm off to a good start. I have 12lbs live rock in the 20 and 8lbs base rock in the sump. I have a couple slabs of slate blocking the bigger particles from getting to my return pump. I have my Aqueon 100W heater in the sump as well as my AQ30 down in the sump to help with filtration.
All of the live rock has been in a 400G tank and has been established for about a year, lots of algae growth on it.
I'll keep this thread updated. My next step is going to be a bunch of hermit crabs and some snails, then my shrimp and lastly my anenomes and fish. I'm going to take my time and add them slowly.
It will probably be a while before it's all up, I'm excited! My first SW tank.
