Today i am at day 23 from the cycle. I started with dryrocks, live sand and seawater. At this moment im dosing daily/weekly several bottles bacteria and Redsea Energy AB+ for corals.

Im planning on dosing with red sea Mg, Ca, Kh and nopox but in the beginning a weekly 10% water change should be enough right?

2 days ago i put in my first easy corals i couldn't wait any longer haha. That day i also tested all the parameters.

Temp 23.6°/ 74.5F Hanna
Salinity 1.023 Hanna
Ph 8.15 Salifert/ ph pen
NH3 0 Salifert
NO2 4 Salifert
NO3 20.5 Hanna
PO4 0.16 Hanna
CA 420 Salifert
MG 1300 Salifert
KH 8.9 Hanna

I got my own RODI setup behind the reeftank and i use tropic marine pro reef salt

At this moment im starting to go in the ugly stage and it is waiting till the nitrite goes to 0.

When nitrite is 0 i will buy my first 2 snowstorm clownfish and 2bloodshrimp and 2 cleanershrimp and some snails.

I would love to see tips about everything and hope to have a good time her Reef2Reef!
