Hey R2R my new system is cycled but will not add any fish for another month. But I wanted to start a conversation about my fish list and stock order.
i'll try to use an acclamation box but as there no LFS with in 100 miles each way it will be 95%+ mail order for me and will get 3-4 fish at a time.
This will be a wrasse dominated system
for filtration I will be using:
4X filter cups with floss changed every 3 days
reef octo 150 skimmer
BRS mini reactor with GFO( if needed) and carbon
turbo's rev 4 L2 ATS
40W pentair UV set on low flow
AWC of 1-1.5gal per day
