So, as all things evolve, so has our first build. We had to scrap the original thought and location. But that’s ok.
We found a monster deal on a complete system that we are going to break down this weekend and transport 2-1/2 hours back home, limited Amount of livestock and all.
I need some input from the community…
1. Fish and corals are shipped all over the world for up to 48 hours. Can we expect to be able to keep everyone ok for probably 4 hours in buckets? It’s Texas, so we will probably have to close them up for the 2-1/2 hour ride and keep them cooler in the A/C. We willI have QT tanks set up finishing the cycle now. There are few fish… clown, file, damsel, tang, loach, couple clams, couple shrimp, a GSP colony and a mushroom colony.
2. I want to keep some of the live sand and rock. How can I store it? It will be a couple months to set up, we are having floors replaced before setting up.
3. Does anyone have any input on how to clean everything and put it up for a couple months. I know that freshwater and elbow grease is best. I think I heard that citric acid is better than vinegar for tough spots like pumps, sumps and skimmers.
