Hi Reef2Reef community!
I’m thrilled to finally introduce my new build, and I want to do things a bit differently from the start.
Instead of the traditional "throw some bacteria and wait" approach, I’m planning to cycle the tank based on the research of Forest Rohwer regarding the Oxygen/DOC...
I don't have an oxygen test or meter, so I am hoping someone a little more high-tech can answer: can I keep a fairly calm display tank in terms of surface tension, if I have water trickling into a sump and am running a skimmer?
Reason I ask is that my lagoon is best appreciated top down, but...
My husband and I have had our tank for almost a year now. All of our fish and tank mates we've had for about 9 months.

Nitrite- 0ppm
Nitrate- 26.9ppm (we know its high, it's due for a water change tomorrow)

Thanks.

Does anyone have experience keeping a reef tank in the mountains?
I have finally had enough of California and will be moving to the Nevada side of Tahoe within the next 2-3 years. I expect to buy a house around 7500-8000 foot elevation. There's not a lot of information online about how marine...
