I am starting a new 55 gallon and have a few questions. I have 40lbs of live sand and wondering if that will be enough? I am planning to get 50-75lbs of live rock and wondering if that is enough? Should I put live sand first or live rock first, or should I put eggcrate on bottom then live sand and live rock on top? I am really confused as which method is best. I am also contemplating if I should do a Deep Sand Bed because from my research it has to be 4" or more and that would take away alot of space on a 55 gallon and looks kind of weird. I am also confused about the whole RO/DI water thing, should I get a 4 stage or 5 stage or should I just use tap water because I read that NYC-Lower East Side water is pretty good. Please help a new reefer get his feet wet, thanks
Kind regards
Jason
