So, I picked up a 72g bowfront aquarium for free the other day. :dance: Now I am starting to plan out my upgrade path to switch from my freshwater 55g to the new tank. It is a reef-ready tank, so corner overflow, drilled, all plumbing out the bottom. I'd like to do a sump on the new tank with a...

Newly cycled (1 week) and I added some fish. Bentos tetras and harlequin rasboras. Water has been at 78F, 0 amm, 0 nitrite, 10 nitrate, ph 7.6 for the entire time. A few rasboras quickly developed fungus on their backs (they didn't look great in the store), so I moved all of them to a QT and...

I am doing a fishless cycle and this morning when I tested the water, the nitrates had dropped. Did nothing to the tank other than test, and it's not planted. Here's my readings over the past several days, dosed ammonia back to 4ppm after each test: NH3/NO2/NO3 3 / .25 / 0 (day 17 of the...
