Okay so I got this tank yesterday and started this process....
1.)clean tank best I can
2.)swap and add sand/rock from the 10g nano I started a month ago and what I have around, may use some of the live rock already in it if it looks okay.
3.) put the clownfish that comes with it back in it after acclimation from its old water to my current water
4.) order snail only cuc from reefcleaners.org to go in by the end of next week and let it cycle another week after the addition of those for a total of 2 weeks after I have the tank converted.
5.) add 1 fish and a 2-3 corals every 2 weeks after that point until I have 5 fish total and at least a dozen corals in it after I have taken it over for a total of 10 weeks.
I will be dosing seachem stability every day from today onward for at least a month
Current fish list planned is as follows:
Ocellaris
Bangaii Cardinal
Purple firefish
Flasher wrasse
Green Chromis
Corals will probably be mostly softies and a couple or few lps
