Hi everyone,
Jumping into the hobby. Been going in and out of the forums here as my tank is cycling.
Here's my starter build:
- NUVO Fusion 40 Pro - AIO
- Desktop MightyJet 528GPH return pump (Came with tank)
- Hydor Koralia Smartwave Kit w/ Hydor Koralia Evolution Powerheads - 850 GPH
- Hydor THEO Heater 200W
- Tunze Comline DOC Protein Skimmer 9001
- Mars Aqua 165W light
- CarbSea Arab-alive special grade sand - 20lbs
- Worldwide imports Atlantic Coral Rock - 40lbs (didn't use 1 piece)
I started my cycling 2 weeks ago with a deli shrimp and Dr. Tim's one and only. Been monitoring the cycle. Ammonia dropping this morning!
Since this is my first mix saltwater tank, I was thinking of just 3-6 fish with some soft corals and CUC. I might look into hard corals after things have established and I'm comfortable.
I have room in my basement to go big, but one step at a time
I have a few questions already which I'll post in separate threads.
Cheers!
