Welcome to R2R!!!

Hi, I am about 4 weeks into my Waterbox AIO 65.4. I have to say it is very beautiful. I started the tank using live sand and dry rock. Then I added Dr. Tim’s ammonia. I added microbacter 7 as a bacteria to help it cycle and kept checking parameter. I have to say this seemed like forever ammonia spiked, then came down to zero. Then my nitrites spiked >5ppm then came down to zero. I will say I did get very impatient at this part and added more bacteria. I used Dr. Tim’s this time. A few days later, nitrites were at zero and it was safe to add my fish. I did a partial water change then added my fish. Just 2 black oscelarious clowns the first week. I had them for 18 months in another tank. A fluval 13.5. A week later I added my leopard wrasse. And aptasia eating file fish. Both from the old system. I am going to purchase a wave maker soon. I have been debating on getting a Nero 5 or MP 40. I made a custom electrical panel that fits on the left side of the cabinet that can be removed if modifications are needed. this forum is great for learning and I will be reading much more. Would love to hear any feedback or experiences with your waterbox tanks!
