Hey R2R,
I've been lurking these forums for ages. Anyways, I recently upgraded from my 22 gallon to a 60 gallon cube (24"X24"x24"). I bought the "Reef pro 60" tank complete with stand and sump for a great deal! (Thanks Neptune Aquatics!!)
So then... I bought 40lbs of pukani dry rock from brs, gave it an acid bath with Starsan (mostly phosphoric acid), rinsed it multiple times with tap water and a final rinse of DI water (about a 3 week process). The phosphates were at a reasonable level (>.25) before I merged my old tank's dry rock and fauna (2 ocellaris, 1 watchman goby, 5 blue-legs hermits, 1 nassuras snail, a few turbos, 4x chalices, frogspawn, 2 monti's, purple death palys, trachy, lepto, GSP, and xenia) with the new tank.
I now have the tank set up with a Kessil a360WE tuna blue led, a hob Reef Octopus BH90 (on the inflow chamber of the sump), heater, at0, new dry sand.
Now- what else do I stock the tank with?? I would like a fish with lots of personality- I was thinking a
Valentini Puffer to start...
Thanks for looking!
