Im a diy guy...if I can build it or make it, I'm gonna build it, or make it.

Started making rock, no way I could afford real live rock. Did purchase 5-7 lbs. to seed the tank.
That process took about a month before i even had a tank.

Found a 55 with stand on craigslist for 60 bucks. I was excited to make some salt water.








Tank cycled for about 45 days before clown fish were added. Started cycle by dosing ammonia. Cuc was added at about 2 1/2 months.
2 clowns were the first additions at about 3 to 3 1/2 months.

More to come soon.
 
Good job!
