I figured i would start a threat showing the progress i make on my tank. This is my first saltwater tank that i've purchased for a really good price. It comes with pretty much everything needed to start including sand and live rock! Although i do need more live rock, replace some hoses, and media. So here it is. I will log even my failures! Hopefully get a few good tips along the way.
The tank from day 1 inside my room... Had to stop filling the tank with the RO since i noticed my room shaking more than usual when walking past the tank.. time to reinforce the floor (which will be done today with cinder blocks)
and after emptying the tank to reduce the weight on the floor, i took advantage of this to put in new lights and rearrange the liverock. I think i need more or to move them to the middle but i havent decided yet.
Hopefully be filling the tank back up with the RO, hooking up (but not running) the filters, and adding salt.
