Hi all,
I am just getting back into the hobby after about a 12 yr hiatus. What can I say, having 2 toddlers meant I didn’t have enough time! Now I have two high schoolers and a 4th grader so figured it was time.
Due to super limited wall space, I decided to do a nano tank and picked the 32g biocube. I went with their stand too, since it was easy and available. Currently just running everything stock. All I added was a heater and some carbon to the media basket.
Day 1: Setup tank and added 25 lbs. of cured live rock and StartSmart Complete.
Day 2: Water clear:
Day 3: Added an oscellaris clown to get things moving
Day 5: Noticed a hitchhiker!
It’s now day 7 and I’m planning my first water change this weekend. I’m getting some algae in the tank and patiently waiting until I can add a cleanup crew.
