I have a new tank and sump. There seems to be a lot of debris from manufacturing, etc. how did you clean things prior to initial filling and use?

HOW IMPORTANT ARE FISH TO MAKING A REEF TANK FEEL COMPLETE?

  • Essential! A reef needs fish movement and personality

    Votes: 18 60.0%

  • Very important, but one or two fish may be enough

    Votes: 4 13.3%

  • Optional... a coral-only reef can feel completely finished

    Votes: 1 3.3%

  • I actually prefer a coral-and-invertebrate-only system

    Votes: 0 0.0%

  • It depends on the tank’s size, style, or purpose

    Votes: 5 16.7%

  • I’ve kept a fishless reef (details in the comments)

    Votes: 1 3.3%

  • Well...it's complicated... (answer in the comments)
