Hey guys I just set up my first saltwater aquarium (water box 65.4) I went with caribsea life rock and special grade sand. Can I get any opinions? Am I gonna have any problems with coral placement? It’s a bit linear not many step like perches but I kinda like it….. like every noob I wanna do a mixed reef I know I’m limited because it’s an AIO.
