Hello everyone. This here is going to be my build thread. I received my Hello Reef kit on Wednesday the 21st, and I have everything set up and the cycle has begun.
Standard Hello Reef equipment
12” AI Blade Grow (using the Hello Reef settings)
Sicce Voyager nano wave maker
50 Watt eheim heater.
The rocks are not currently in the “final rockscape” because I ordered the Pico package from TBS. My thoughts are that this will be enough live rock and sand to get this party started. But I have the rocks in there anyway so I can get the tank cycling. The current estimate for the shipment from TBS is 9/11. I’m very excited!
After I get the TBS shipment, I plan to buy some pods and some phyto to kick the diversity up a notch.
I’m not sure what my “stocking list” is quite yet, but I do know it involves a tailspot blenny. I was maybe thinking a purple firefish, tailspot blenny and clown goby. At any rate I plan on adding fish slowly, maybe a fish a month, with the shyest members first.
I had originally thought to go the BTA/clownfish route, but I’ve seen how big those BTA can get, and I think one large one would take over the whole tank.
For corals I will start with maybe some shrooms, leathers and zoas and go from there, see what works.
Any advice is welcome.
