Good Morning Everyone,
I am new to the saltwater hobby and I have been doing lots of research the past year and a half. I have all of my equipment already the only thing that I am having a hard time with is sand and Dry rock. I have a 90 gallon Reef ready tank with the Aqueon ProFlexâ„¢ Modular Sump Filtration Model 4 - 29.25 gallons Volume represents the maximum volume of water that the sump holds when set up in the Refugium configuration. How much dry rock would I need to put into my system. I plan on doing FOWLR for the first year or so to get the hang of the saltwater hobby before is spend the money on corals I want to make sure i have the hang of things. Now when it comes to sand i really like the look of the Florida Crushed Coral. I have it in my 40 gallon Cichlid tank and love the look and also has stabilized my PH and also love the extra surface area for beneficial Bacteria. I know for certain fish like Sand Sifting Gobies you cant go to big with the sand grains but i dont want anything small that will get blown around my tank. Any advise will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Derek Authement
