Hi Reefers
My FOWLR tank (.. corals to come in a year or so!) is still fairly new and as such, it lacks the maturity and biodiversity of more established tanks. I have plenty of patience, but at the same time like everyone else I want to give my tank- and all my fish and livestock the best conditions possible.
Here's what I am thinking in order to push things along the right path:
1. I have access to 20 year+ matured rock from a healthy and established tank; I will grab some of that and stick it in my sump
2. I will be dosing Aquaforest Life Source mud once every week - I have only seen good reviews and experiences with this product here on R2R with only minor complaints about short term issues with water clearity
3. A substantial amount of live copepods and rotifers will be added to my refugium as well as phytoplankton for feeeding. Pods and rotifers will be added as a weekly subscription as well.
4. Wait! Add patience to the mix..
Any other suggestions apart from above- and comments and advice?
Cheers!
