So I'm finally starting a new tank post. My hubby, David and I (Chris) have started gathering the equipment we need. He needs to fix and paint the stand and clean up the 150g used tank we got. We have a Sea Side Aquatics protein skimmer with a Sicce PSK1000 pump, a 72" Current Orbit Marine IC Loop led light and we are going to get 2 eflux wave pumps, I'm not sure what pump he has for the return but he has one [emoji3] , salt, sand and about 80 pounds of dry rock, we'll be getting about the same amount of live rock when the tank is ready to be filled. We still need to get an Aquatic Life twist in 100gpd ro/di and a sump/refugium. And set up a qt tank. I have a few questions though. How many fish can I start out with when the tank is cycled and water parameters are good? What should the water parameters safely be before adding fish? What chemicals, meds. etc. should I have on hand. Is there anything that needs to be added to the tank while cycling? Any help and information would be greatly appreciated! Thank you. Hmm, I'm not sure how to add photos to this post, I clicked on save and copy and it saved an extra pic of what I was trying to add then put a link on here so I hope you can actually see them [emoji15]
