Just curing LR in a 5 gal for a 14 gal nano reef that's in the works, but I wanted to document the beginning of this undertaking!

Current equipment: Carbon filter sock w/ built in filter & 2 tunze nano pumps.

(Mini Protein skimmer is on the way, and I have a bag of purigen that I intend to use with the DT)

Day 2 Parameters:
Salinity 1.021
Temp 81F (a little high, and the light has been off all day... any suggestions on keeping it cool w/o a chiller in FL are welcome!)
Ammonia: 0? (See pic)
Nitrate: 5-10
Nitrite: 0.1-0.2
