My First Saltwater Aquarium

[TPReef]

Help.... I don’t know if I’m going on the right direction. I started my first saltwater tank cycle yesterday. It is 13.5 gallons with 15lbs of live Carib sea sand and 10lbs of dry rock. I dosed with 25ml of Fluval Cycle the first day. The image I uploaded is day 2 of my parameters. Temps readin 79 degrees F. Am I going in the right direction

Welcome to r2r!!I think your fine just be patient.That is the hardest part.
I would give it a week before you do more testing.It is a slow process right now and you need as stated before to be patient.

Hi, I am also starting out I never had a salt water tank, I had a fresh water tank many years ago and I have a koi pond but I am really exited with the salt water tank. Its a peninsula from waterbox I hope I don't get an algae problem because it gets a little direct sun light
