I actually went with a Deep Sand Bed a little over 2", after to settled and cleared up


It's been up for about 3 months now.. I've have some coral laying around in my other Tanks that I décor it with.. Enjoy

Full Tank Shot


My only live stock are 2 Platinum Clownfish and a couple snails at the moment. So far it's been crystal clear and I do a water change about every 2 weeks. I used Instant Oceans Bio-Spiral to cycle the tank at the beginning, I added a cup of Live Sand to the sand Bed to get sand going. I added fish at about a week or so and started to add corals every week 1 or 2 corals at a time. It took awhile for the Skimmer to break in but it's working like a Beast. I have yet to test anything as far as water parameters. I've been doing this for so long about 15 plus years that I went all the fly... I don't recommend everyone to do that. Always test first before adding fish.

I noticed lately the skim will be lite until I open up the valve and more bubble are created. Then after awhile it slows down again, until I open it up even more... Not sure if it need cleaning but it's becoming a slight pain.

I have the same skimmer and I'm constantly adjusting how much air goes into it. Seems to be a common problem with them
