Im imprtting my jornal I had started on another forum. I hope that's ok.
Jornal started about a month ago.
My tank was fit with the following
Lighting - NICREW Saltwater Aquarium Light, Marine LED Fish Tank Light for Coral Reef Tanks, 2-Channel Timer Included, 24 to 30-Inch, 24-Watt - amazon
Canister Filter- Aqueon QuietFlow Canister Filter up to 55 Gallons
Heater - Orlushy Submersible Aquarium Heater 300W
Substrate - Crushed coral 2"
Live Rock -10Lbs from local fish store tank. Loads of algy and hitchhikers living on rock.
Fish - 6 Mollies and about 7 guppies, Pair of clowns
Invert- Emerald Crab, Small hermit crab, 4 asterina starfish, 2 Limpets, 2 fuzzie small yellowish sponges, and a small clam on the first rock I bought he is doing well so far a month in.
Coral - Green Zoanthid, Pulsating Xenia, Ricordea Mushroom, Duncan Polyp.
Mu Reef - https://www.aquaticlog.com/aquariums/bones6966/1
I started out with a fresh water tank. After finding out that mollies can guppies do just fine in salt water I decided to slowly convert the tank to salt. I Enjoy these fish and have always wanted a reef ecosystem.
I was having a bit of an issue with the cycle but it is getting much better now.
My plan would be to add a mushroom or two and see how I manage with them. Once they thrive might add another peace of another kind and so on.
Also once the cycle is stable ill add a bit more of a clean up crew and maybe a larger starfish or something.
That's about it I think. I will add as things change,
What do ya think?
