New to the Forum.

Is a build thread any different then what I have already listed, maybe just more detailed?

My diatoms appear to have turned green, is this a good thing?

Also at what point should I start adding a cleaning crew.

Not sure if I should move these questions to a different thread.

Thanks!

Welcome to R2R!!
This is a Great place for info and Help

as your tank matures you will get all different types of uglies... just part of the waiting game.I normally wait until the tank has cycled before adding CuC..Keep ghost feeding and once ammonia has not showed up for a week or so then add CuC..Everyone does it different..My last 2 tanks I waited about 45 days or so.
 
 
Thanks for sharing!! Glad you're on R2R and welcome to the hobby!

Be patient and allow your tank to fully cycle before adding ay livestock :)
 
Welcome to R2R! Your build looks good, you’ve come to the right place for any questions you might have
 
Welcome to R2R! I like your rockwork. It looks kinda like the rockscape in my old nano hex tank. You are going to love this forum. Great information, great buildthreads, and even better people. Enjoy!
