Hi All,
I am new to SW fish keeping having kept a whole load of Freshy tanks over the years and thought now was the time to bite the bullet and come play with the big dogs! So, with a shed load of reading and watching in on various forums, today I picked up a 70 gallon tank, have just bought 60lbs of dry eco-rock from bulk reef supply along with a Koralia Evolution powerhead and a tote box in which to 'cure' my rock (I will be picking up a heater and some salt on the morrow).
I'll give that 4 weeks or so to do its business and then will get in in the tank and let the tank cycle (with the token prawn on a stick) and go from there. I'm pretty excited to get going and will be visiting everyday to see what else i can learn.
So thanks already for all the info (even though you have done it sub-consciously up until now) and I'll keep you posted as to how I get on,
Ta Ra for now,
Duncan
