Aquarium Advice Newbie
Hello all, I've been reading trying to get as much information as I could to get my new (eventual) reef tank started (just added live rock to let cycle for the next few weeks).
Had a great fresh water system but while on a week vacation I had a massive power surge and lost the sub-main electrical panel suppling power to my tank... Everything was destroyed plants, animals, and ecosystem...total loss.
Took me a few weeks to get moving again but decided to re-enter the $hobby$ with a reef system. Looks to be quite a challange and I look forward to learning the tricks and reading the great posts. I'm sure I'll be asking questions as I get lost.
My novice advice...have someone check your system while your away as you can plan plan plan, but when lightning strikes...all thats left is brown water.
I'll post some pictures as I advance. Any newbie advice is always appreciated.
Thanks,
Bill
