Hi all, new to this. Have many years experience with freshwater. I used to breed Malawis years ago with tanks everywhere in the house housing holding females, young fish in various stages of growth, and my show tank, 100 gallon. I have now decided to have a go at marines. Got a 11o ltr freshwater at the moment with just a few run of the mill fish in it. I am hoping this will go in the new year. I am limited by space, so bought myself a full set up, 2nd hand of course. I have got
Aqua One 150, 120 ltrs. Stand with sump and all pipework.
Bubble Magus c3.5 skimmer.
Luminaire v2 with brackets.
DCP 2500 Jecod pump.
TMC 6000 wavemaker.
Heater.
Filter socks.
Luminie light for the sump.
Jump Guard and cover glass.
All this is practically new, with all instruction booklets and all remotes for the items that need them. I paid £295 for all this lot, and am now in the process of putting together everything else i need. One thing that is confusing me is which rock to get. I have about 35 kilos of ocean rock, but am not sure this is the best thing for my project. I have seen marco rock, tufa rock, puka rock, DD rock, Stax rock, and fiji rock. Can anyone give me any pointers as to which is the best to use? I will be starting a journal when i set up the tank and will be asking for much more advice. I want to take my time and do this right. If anyone has any advice on the equipment i have or anyone thinks i need to upgrade anything, please comment. Thanks. Chris.
