First Fish!?

[WhySoSeriousDory]

So I recently moved to full salt from brackish a couple of weeks ago. I was wondering what everyone’s take on getting my first fish in there this week. See my parameter ls and equipment below. The guppies in there are in there from previous set up and I also have about 6 hermits.

37 gallon tall


Calcium 400

Nitrates 100

Phosphates 2

Kh 120

Salinity 1.025

Ph 8.0



Lights : I have 2 bright whites that are not in use, currently using https://www.petsmart.com/fish/heati...MIrNS6rqW97gIV6uHACh2DCwqCEAQYAyABEgK_OvD_BwE

aqueon circulation pump
Heater (at 77.3 degrees)
Fluval (aqua clear) 50 filter

I can't really tell but is that dragon stone in there?

I'd remove it since it may leach out and end up killing your tank

Here’s an update to where I’m at so far

i see brown on your powerhead. add some silica removal media. i think dragon stone has left a lot of silica behind.
also, are your nitrates 100 ppb or ppm? 100ppm is way too high.

Yea that was about 3 weeks ago when I posted all of that. Now all the levels are on point. The diatoms are goin down now
