Hi friends, new to saltwater tanks here and would appreciate some directions on how to handle the first stages of bio activity. I have e a 30g tank, just the bare minimum I guess to enter the hobby. It has been running for 2 months on a HoB filter with only sand and rocks in it. I used AF Bio Sand from Aquaforest and live cured rocks. Treated the water with Aquamaker from easy-life as the only brands available where I live. I am planning to introduce some fish soon and will use an internal skimmer. Would love to put some corals too but this will be well after tank is stabilized, fish are healthy and when I confident in what i am doing.
I would appreciate some direction on the next few critical steps i need to take before putting fish in the tank. Right now I need to understand what the green spots are on my rock. Should i worry, should i do something about it or is this normal and part of a tank's progress. Thanks a lot in advance to anyone with the patience to help.
