Hey All - New Reefer Here

[chenzo9999]

Hey Folks,

I am setting up my first 90 gallon reef tank. It is a little unique just because I am renting a 2 bedroom in NYC - should be interesting.

I have been curing my rock (~35lbs cured from LFS and ~75lbs Dry from a previous FOWLR set-up)

I am loving this forum and am hoping to pick the brains of all the veterans out there.

Love the hobby and patiently waiting to add my clean up crew!

I am starting to get a diatom bloom.

Also I posted a need Identification in that forum if anyone can help.

Thanks again so much!

The following are my tank specs:
90 Gallon Tempered Glass
