So I have my new RED SEA MAX E 260 tank being delivered to my house on Wednesday. I was just wondering of anyone had any tips on what I should have before the tank gets here. Thanks
 
All your rock in a bucket of saltwater, some flow and a bottle of bacteria. Maybe some marine pure blocks.
Let’s jump start the cycle while your playing with your new stuff and congrats.
 
Get a good refractometer and some calibration solution (if required). And DO certainly get a RO/DI system.
 
Get some shims to help level if needed, some glue and accelerator and get ready to glue some rocks up…..
 
Start seawater and assure level floor in a location that is NOT near or at a window or heat register.
