Being new to the forum i never know where to start.
My husband is a livid fish lover. For the 20 last years we had only freshwater aquariums. So here we are in a new adventure. For xmas i bought him a salt reef kit:
Epheim 63 litre nano aquarium.
Tunze 9001 surface skimmer
Tunze led eco chic 8821
Jebao jecod sow 4
Eheim StremON 1800
lights classic LED hybrid de 1x 7.7 w 390 lm
We want to have a mixte reef. Our reef is 5 weeks old. We had a big ammonia spike 2 weeks after we placed the "life" rocks. Since then all water tests are great and stable. I did not have a spike in N02 or N03, but hair algae started to bloom. We did notice load of micro life and a colony of very active snails and a hitchhiker crab, which no one at this stage could give me a name. in short the reef is a live with acropods, feather duster a whole colony and weird worms, so we decided to add orange leg hermit crab and 3 nassaruis snails.
I will keep you updated.
