Aquarium Advice Regular
ok i have been in the fw tanks for alil while but have decided to go with a sw....just a spur of the moment thing, anyways i have many questions! and questions i dont ask just means idk about it and i will be more than happy to learn lol so far i have just alil rena 30 filter with the rena 50 watt heater..... i have a 26 gallon nano bow front, a 24 inch light with 21 inch actinic 65 watt, and a compact fluorescent 65 watt as well, also moonlight led's in the back, i have about 25-30 pounds of live rock with aalil over 28 ppt salinity and 1.021 specific gravity (this is with a hydrometer so not as accurate) also have 25 pounds of sand sitting at the bottom.....now what i have on the way is 2 100 watt heaters to put on each side since the original heater isnt doing what i need, a hob odessy skimmer ( ik your all thinking y in the world did you buy this but ima give it a shot if it doesnt work then on to the next but this has already been ordered) i have 2 370gph powerheads on the way as well, this is my setup and for now its all im going to have to work with.....not a bad start but im new so any support would be nice added photos for everyone to get an idea of what im working with, my next step after geting everything shipped and installed is going to be coral.....i was told that i have low lighting. im not sure if it makes a differnce to have the light on more or less either way you guys let me know, also what else is out there for me to look at getting to get this water perfect! i dont want to spend any amount of money on fish or coral till its fully read.
thx in advance for the help
