Clearing up nicely. Used the good old refractometer and got a salinity reading of 1.028. From what I'm reading, this isn't optimal but works fine. What do we think? Try and lower or leave it?

In what order in your media basket or sump?I like granulated carbon and seachem purigen have that running in my reef.
How much can your car hold?Had vinegar.... Need far more. Thoughts on how much I'll need?
Thanks Katrina. I went the opposite direction and simply bought all of the vinegar the store had hahahaHow much can your car hold?
Trying to find dry Fiji pink or so moan pink locally to not deal with shipping during the holidays. No luck so far.I like granulated carbon and seachem purigen have that running in my reef. It did clear up nicely.
Going bare bottom?
Also use fraggles are in need of some nog and @Robin Haselden would take some southern comfort with it as well
Haven't decided. Filtration is up in the air.Nice find and with a apex! Have you thought about using marine pure ? I filled my overflow chamber with it.

again late to the party
Thanks! I'm pretty excited!Nice build! I went with Reef Cleaner's rock in my build too. John sent me 450# of some nice rock. Once I added some live rock it took maybe 2 months for dime-sized coralline algae spots to start spreading everywhere. Someone mentioned Dr Tim's in an earlier post in your thread. I used that stuff to start my cycle and it worked great. Have fun!
Which Dr tims would I buy. Woukd you suggest that over biospira?The cool thing about the reef cleaners rock is it's free of organics. No organics means you don't have to worry about any decay. If he puts a small piece of actual wet live rock with established bio filter, reef cleaner and Dr Tim's, he probably will never see a cycle as long as he only adds a very small bioload, say a pair of clowns for the first two months. The bio filter in the LR plus the Dr Tim's will be enough to skip cycle the tank, but you can easily overload it.
