Aquarium Advice FINatic
Just figured I'd give an update, what looked like a giant milkshake is begginging to clear and my tank is actually looking pretty nice. I thought I did a pretty bad job aquascaping with the LR but with the sand in it looks nice. The biggest challenge was fitting it all in to the tank. The tank is set up so it creates two seperate rooms out of my basement, so it can be viewed from both sides. It was pretty hard to do that using the whole (I think it was about 125 pounds) of rock I got. Im getting good lighting tommorow, I think I will get the coralife PC thingy. Starting today I am going to take measurements during cycling. Is it important to test for anything other than ammonia, nitrite, and I guess nitrate during cycling? I also wanted to make sure it was alright to do a 50% water change when the tank is finished cycling, so is that a good thing to do? Lastly, this being my first saltwater tank, is there anything I really should keep an eye out for, or expect to happen during the early stages of my tank?
Thanks for all those here helping me out as I begin to get into the saltwater/reef hobby.
