Hello all,
I am Alex, just started my very fist pico saltwater aquarium, I’ve been dreaming for some time.
The tank used is a 57 litre aquarium with rounded front corners, bean animal overflow and a 60 litre sump.
Hardware part is comprised of a RedSea reef led 50, a 100W heater, a jebao wave maker, jebao dcs 1200 return pump and a bubble magus qq1 skimmer.
I am using RedSea coral pro salt and I am currently on day 15 of cycling my aquarium with RedSea Reef Mature starter kit.
There is a total of 10 kg of live rock 5 kg in the display tank and another 5 kg in the refugium part of the sump.
Currently there are some brown algae and some kind of worm coming out of the live rock.
Water chemistry last night was:
Salinity 1024
Ph 8.4
Kh 9.5
NO3 15
NO2 0
looking forward to finishing the cycling and introducing the first corals.
Cable management is still a work in progress
