New aquarium

[vazqueztony]

Hi everyone

Just added the water yesterday added the rocks and waiting for them to go live.

How long should i wait to test water

How long before the water starts getting clear

How long before i can throw a couple of damsels to work the water

Does any one recognize the skimmer i think its not connected right there is a pump not connected

Reef octopus makes a great skimmer. You should be able to find a manual on their website.

It's hard to see if it's connected properly because of the micro bubbles. Unplug the skimmer and then take a picture of it.
