Hi all, I am brand new to all of this! Stopped by the LFS and got hooked immediately. LOL. Hoping to use this thread to track progress and get feedback. Have only had my tank 10 days. LFS set me up and brought all the stable\pre-mixed water and some live rock. My goals for now are to just let things be for a bit and then add some new easy coral and maybe a tang. Thoughts?
Current setup is as follows:
Red Sea Reefer 250 G2+ System (54 Gal)
Ecotech Radion G6 XR15 (QTY 2)
Caribsea 40lb Fiji Pink Sand
Live/Dry Rock
Bubble Magus Curve 5 Elite Protein Skimmer
Syncra Silent 3.0 Pump
Jebao MLW 10 Wavemaker
Eheim 150w Heater
Live Stock:
2 - Orange Storm Clown Fish
2 - Emerald Crab
2 - Peppermint Shrimp
1 - Neon Green Star Polyp (GSP)
1 - Halloween Hermit Crab
1 - Blue Legged Crab
1 - Strawberry Conch
1 - Horseshoe Crab
1 - Bumble Bee Snail (Hitchhiker)
Water parameters:
Salinity 1.027
pH 8.2
Alk 6.7 (looking to get this up a bit)
Calcium 403
Mag (TBD, test arrives today)
Nitrate 5
Phosphate 0.14 (Added Chemi-pure Elite yesterday)
Ammonia (TBD, test arrives today)
Thanks!
