I recently moved from CA to UT, and I feel your pain. IMO, time and patience is the key. Go slow. Fish do not need lights all the time. PWC until your NH3 and NO2 is gone. Then, consider emerald crabs, or other inverts. My crabs made short order on my algae problem after I set up my tank...

I didnt think about the detrivore kit for the DSB in the fuge. Has anyone else had luck with the addition of a kit like this for their DSB?

anyone have a reccomendation for what livestock I can/should put in my sump/fuge? I have LR rubble in the first baffle, and a DSB fuge in another. I was thinking about a couple of hermit crabs in the LR baffle and some snails in the fuge. What kind of snails would be best for the...
