Okay... another "is this enough" question... I have a few months before I take the big dip, AND am in no hurry to get 109401289028390 forms of life in my tank (and room for the budget).
Just a few questions:
1) Is it a good idea to get 60 lbs of dry hawaiian base rock from www.hirocks.com & 20-30 lbs of fuji live rock from lfs and let the live "seed" the dry? (in no hurry to throw in corals/anemones/leathers, etc). Will this work, or am I wasting money on this hawaiian base?
2) Not sure I can afford CF right now, but have 2 40W NO (03 & bright white) for my 60E gal tank. If I'm not planning on adding any anemones as stated above, will basic lighting be sufficient to sustain all the coralline on the rocks, or will they die and/or stop growing??
CF can come eventually from captivereefs, but with moving into a new apartment and costs associated with it, my wallet is as heavy as a ball of cotton-candy in the wind.
