I’m gonna stop by today so we can get this tank stocked up

Oof! So first, I setup the bare tank without any rocks...only the Caribsea special grade sand and let it sit for a week. I've ordered 35 lbs. of premium Live rock from Tampa Bay Saltwater but it won't ship until August 21st. I used Dr.Tim's fishless cycling method. The tank looked really...

I'm an IT tech. I try to fix all kinds of tech stuff people at work expect me to know how to fix. The truth is, I don't know how half the stuff I end up fixing even works. But the pay is good enough to buy a reef tank!

I was skeptical about this Liferock and using dry rock for new tanks. I took this as another one of those new advancements in the hobby while I was away to minimize the risk of unwanted hitchhikers and pathogens. I see the pros and cons. I just visited Neptunes (the first and only LFS) I've seen...

I ordered a couple more items and will decide what to keep on the system when everything comes in. So far, I've added the Hydros 4 starter pack, Fluval M300 Watt Submersible Heater, CaribSea Seafloor Special Grade Reef Sand. Still debating between the Special grade and Florida crushed. I had...

Thanks for the warm welcomes everyone! I've found myself busy planning every day for the past two weeks and my wife is starting to wonder if this is going to become an obsession (of course it is). So far, based on my research, my setup includes; Waterbox Marine 90.3, CaribSea Liferock, CaribSea...

I'll help for the 2-3PM time slot

The Journal Photos here A little about myself... I grew up in San Jose up until High school and my dad always had fresh water tanks in our home. When I moved to Houston for college, I continued to have my own fw tanks until I decided to go saltwater in 2000. By 2004, I had two display tanks and...

That's a really good point. That amount of light is probably overkill for right now with a brand new setup. I could probably spend all that money on new frags and corals instead.

Hi! I just ordered a Waterbox Marine X 90.3 which measures 35.4" x 19.7" x 21.7" along with one Kessil AP9X. I plan to create an SPS dominated tank. Technically, the light fixture is rated to support this size tank but I've noticed that there are several people who decided that this single light...
