Well, A Quick Update.... Things Are Going Great With The Tank Now. "mator" Is Eating, Swimming, Doing Everything That I Guess A Fish Would Do. I Can Even Get Him To Come To The Top Of The Water To Eat.
So My Plan Was To Wait To Add Anything To The Tank Until I Could put a sump together out of my 10 gallon tank So I Can Add A Skimmer. But, I Think I Have To Get Some Sort Of Small Cleaning Crew. Maybe Like 5 Snails, And 3 Red Scarlet Crabs. The Reason......TONS OF BROWN ALGEA !!! I Mean Like A Carpet. On The Rocks Sand And The Lower Part Of The Glass. I Think I Have To Do Something About It, I Dont Think It Looks Good.
My Water Has Been Great, Nitrite= 0 Ammonia=0 Nitrates As Of Yesterday Almost 0. No More Strip Tests Either.Doing the drop test with the water.
I Will Be Away For A Couple Days So When I Get Back I Think I Am Going To Test Silicates And Phosphates To See If That Is Why My Brown Algea Is Going Crazy.And then start building my sump.
Any Sugesstion Would Be Great !!!
Thanks
