Hello everyone my name is Patrick I currently live in NYC and decided to get a salt water tank,I have had fresh water all my life and now I feel ready for a challenge and burn some cash :tongue: right now the tank is completely dismantled as I want to soak in as much info as possible before i start it. I have been impatiently waiting for a book i purchased in the mail, but Id rather hear from some personal experiences.
The tank is a 55 gallon, crushed coral (given with the tank), I have a large filter, full test kit, small power head, shells, coral (real and fake), salt water level tester.......the rest escapes me at the moment. Next I will be purchasing live rock, live sand and a heater. A member of this board is actually trying to get me some sand (also the person I bought all this stuff from).
Basically Im asking for any tips or link me to the common FAQ im sure is stickied somewhere to help me start this tank, I may buy another power head because I was told i should have alot of water movement, I plan to have a fish only tank but who knows, i change my mind often!:headache:
Thanks for any help!!
