Aquarium Advice Regular
Just started a 40g tank and would like some feedback please. So far I added 20 lbs of aragonite sand(not live) into the tank and let the sediments settle for about a day. Day two I bought 7 lbs of live rock and added them into the tank to let it start the cycle. I then added 4 lbs of bare rock on day 3. Haven't tested the water yet for ammonia or nitrite. The barometer is reading 1.022-1.023. Planning on getting 10 more lbs of live rocks this weekend and 1-2 lbs of live sand also. I got a jumbo shrimp in there as well. I set the thermometer to 79 but the water doesn't seem to go above 74 during the day, and 76 at night. Here is a picture of what I have so far.
