Re: Hello

Hi and welcome. You might want to think about getting more live rock. Live rock will serve as your main source of biological filtration. I like to aim for 1 to 2 lbs per gallon, but in my tanks I like to have rock on the high end of that (2 lbs per gallon). It sounds like you're off to a good start.

Re: Hello

Welcome to the forum! I have found it very useful and I'm sure you will too.

Just curious, do you have the tank at school or home? I just had a 2.5 gal freshwater tank when I was at school and it was such a pain! But I guess that's how far we'll go for the fish we love!

Re: Hello

Welcome to the reef,

The tank is at school. be careful not to have too many Crazy partys. the fish tend to not like the Beer being feed to them or the drunken bumps to the tank's desk or stand.

LOL i needed to go to school! MAN why did I not go...
