Getting ready

ndz98 · Oct 25, 2015

I finally got a protein skimmer this weekend and set it up, set up my new light, changed the water, rearranged my aquascape, and bought three new snails and a crab. I was really planning on trying to buy my first frag this weekend but of course my circulation pump broke so there isn't much flow in my tank right now and I didn't want the frag to have a problem with the water flow. Hopefully sometime I can try again. This is a picture of my tank as of now though.

I was planning on getting the one in the center of the first picture and the second picture.

ok, those should do fine

you'll be somewhat limited to soft corals tho, if you decide to go with lps id suggest adding a t5 strip or two

I would like to get a little bit more live rock, get a couple of frags, maybe some cleaner shrimp or a fish, more live sand, and some little things like a mag float cleaner and a refractometer to make life a little easier when changing the water and cleaning the tank. And I from what it sounds like I need another light?
