Thanks everybody, so far my readings are:
ammonia is 1.5
Nitrate is .25
ph is 80.
I didnt check nitrates tonight, last night the nitrite and nitrate were both 0. It is pretty cool to see the cycle start.
I know that people say your tank should be up around a year before adding a nem. I would like to add one to mine first so that it can find the spot it likes so not to sting any corals moving around. Does anyone have any experience with a nem in a new tank. Maybe some things to watch for. My goal here is to keep water quality high. My starter tank was a 125 and i did not keep it like I wanted to. This is my re-start tank, first time from scratch.
It will have a nem, pair of picasso clowns, mixture of corals, clam and one or two more fish and shrimp.
