OK so there was a snag with the pump being used for the chiller... All the fans on the impellor broke off (stupid marineland pump) so I now bought a mag 7 pump instead, its alot bigger, so hopefully there wont be any problems now. Also bought some dry rock that will hopefully be seeded by the live rock that is in there already and it will become live rock for extra filtration and maybe a place to raise copepods for when I get a big tank and will want a mandarin. So now still waiting for my light fixture to come in (Monday) and my ATI bulbs (coming in on Thursday). I am also seeding the bacteria with Stability by Seachem and Microbacter 7 by Brightwell on alternating days to get my biological filtration up (supplementing with ammonia chloride for a fishless cycle).
