Hi all,
I'm new to keeping fish and decided to jump straight into saltwater (despite what everyone I know kept cautioning me!); looking forward to getting to know you and ask for some help!
I recently set up and cycled a second hand 60L tank and added two lovely little clownfish to it. A week later I lost them to what I believe was ich (they are my current avatar pic). Pretty devastated right now but looking to completely restart my tank from scratch and hopefully next time I'll catch something like this quick enough to make a difference.
 
Welcome to Reef2Reef! I am sorry to hear about your loss and am cheering for you as you move forward with your tank.
 
Welcome to R2R! Sorry about the loss of your clowns right off the bat. I encourage you to research getting a QT up and running for your new additions. We are here to help!

Howdy. Welcome to R2R. So sorry for your losses.
 
Welcome to the Reef. I was in a similar boat to you. Never had any fish, except a betta in a bowl and jumped right into saltwater. I've really enjoyed it and glad to took the plunge.

Many thanks for your comment - I am about to set up a QT so doing lots of research at the moment!
 

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 9 22.5%
  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

    Votes: 7 17.5%
  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

    Votes: 2 5.0%
  • I haven’t really considered this before
