Hey congrats on the whole set up. Can’t wait to see those corals you got cooking up. Following.

I'm trying to be patient with adding coral. Nitrates are around 5, so might be time for a mushroom!

Looks really slick. I think I might buy a lid from them too, if they have a size I can use.

I'm very impressed with how it looks! Their production time is also much faster than we've experienced with other brands. Highly recommend!

If you ever see a very clean and established tank at the LFS Store ask if you can get like 5 Gallons of their water. And be sure to ask to siphon only the surface.

When starting up my tank I quicken things up a ton of stuff just by using established tank water. Clearly be mindful and check the tank out for any pests. Some are absolutely clean from the start and have zero pest. So your chances on getting established clean water would help you so much. Also I noticed I never had to buy pods since their water had so many pods. Helps saves you from buying pods online which are expensive.

For corals, that tank needs to be established And using that LFS store water may just get you a one way ticket to jumping right in with corals the next week

Missed these notifications.

I did think about doing this. We have a larger tank I was going to soak some media in and also take water from. But ultimately decided I wanted to take "the long route" to 1. Learn more about start up and 2. Apply what I've learned over the years. Its been a little stressful, but so far no issues! I'm thinking of adding a discosoma to see how it does.
