Hi
I'm starting my first ever tank in the next few weeks and need a little guidance.
I want to start my tank by mixing live and dead rock, with a sand bed. I am happy to wait for a while as it matures before I add anything else, but need a few questions answered.
I am reading that sand beds can cause later issues. What can I do to make sure there is no build up of bad bacteria in my sand bed, that could later cause me problems?
How is best to mix the salt and water and get the right salinity. If I am doing a water change, how can I make sure the salt levels are right?
Thanks
