How much LR is suggested for a 72 gallon tank? I am going with a DSB setup and have heard that I would need approx. 72 lbs.
Does this all have to be LR or could I do 50 lbs of LR and 25 lbs of base rock (since the base will eventually become live).
I have nothing in my tank now except the sand and water. I would like to buy the LR from an online retailer (since it so much cheaper than LFS) and would like to know if anyone has done this and what their experience has been.
I plan on throwing in a raw shrimp at the same time I add the LR to get the cycle started. Any issues with this?
Thanks in advance
