Today i finally filled one of the tanks i intend to do SW in
Filled the tank added salt and let it mix. i have added a powerhead and added live rock. I notice some little crabs sneaking about.
Will be adding a few mollies to help with cycle.
This tank is cruising along quite nicely. But, lol, I have decided to move all the corals to another tank i now have setup (its not yet ready for the coral move though) The damsels are getting swapped out for different livestock.
So this tank will end up being liverock with fish only, i am eying off a lionfish to put in here (will upgrade when needed)
A new development. Working in a pet store is dangerous lol I am in the process of buying a brand spankin new marine tank. This one is sumped, which will make things tidy and even has a section in the sump to use for quarantine.....
I had to head into work today to pick up a new heater and i now get to choose between the one i originally was getting and the brand new model coming.....thinking the new model may be the way i go, it really depends on how it looks, as the one already in store will suit my decor perfectly.
Using your sump for quarantine is risky, in that if they have a fungus, virus, etc., it is now in the water being pumped back into your display. Just my 2 cents worth
So i am hoping to pick up the new tank today. Also hoping to get it setup and start transferring everything over. Gonna have to buy more salt and RO too i think.
So finally got everything moved and the tank running. Needs some settle time to clear. Pending on results will then be looking at starting fish stocking with some clowns.....
