New here, and to the hobby. I've had FW tanks for years, but am new to SW. I just purchased a JBJ 29 Gallon Nano. So far, I really like it. They guy I got it from had 2 clowns (breeding pair, he says), a blue tang (of course!), and a pseudochromis (royal dottyback). There are 3 or 4 small red/yellow hermits, 2 turbo snails, a decorator spider crab, and a brittle star. There are a few corals in there too....of which I have no idea what kind they are. (There is a toadstool & a tree coral...I figured those out, lol.) There is coraline along the back wall, and a bit on the side wall. It's really hard to get off the side w/a scraper (acrylic tank) - any tips? I'll leave it on the back, as I hear it's beneficial.
The sand bed looks "dirty"....any tips? Would an urchin, star, or other snails help?
I just set it up yesterday, and the LR looks dirty from everything re-settling. I cleaned the sponge in the back, and resettled everything. How do I tidy up the rock?
Thanks for your help...I'm really excited about our new tank!
