Hi fellow reefers! So I’m brand spanking new to this hobby. I’m planning on getting my 16gallon Biocube wet for the first time in the next couple weeks! Was curious about a couple things, one being how soon I’ll be able to introduce corals or fish to the tank, and if it’s advised to do corals first or fish first. Also for some reason I’m just so nervous about water parameters. Also curious what I need to use for my biological filters. I’m the kind of person who is a perfectionist and I want my tank to look like the best nano tanks around. And I’m not too shy of hard work. Lol. If someone has any tips or stocking ideas or maybe just comments or concerns I am more than open to the criticism if it means having a gorgeous reef in my home. All I know that I need for certain at this time is water, live rock, and filter media. But still would love some pointers!!
Everything I have for my tank:
16 gallon biocube
Coralife biocube protein skimmer v2
Cobalt 75watt heater
15lb caribsea live sand
Dr tims one and only
Dr tims ammonium chloride
Refractometer
Hydrometer
REEF MASTER test kit
Thermometer
