drfu Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 So im on my second reef build, see thread if your interested, http://www.nano-reef.com/topic/341061-aqueon-15-column-fw-to-reef-conversion-build/?p=4635039 My question is this, i believe my tank is cycled, got diatoms covering most of my live rock, I did get some white die off on my live rock, i purchased it locally that was in another tank so I'm assuming it was quite cured and the die off was when i was aquascaping on dry land. Todays parameters after 50% water change Salinity 1.025, ph8.0, temp 80 No detectable, ammonia, nitrites, copper. Nitrates below 5, barely detectable phosphates but do have some according to my API test. Alk 12, Ca 420. Thoughts on cuc or a fish, i don't have my lighting in yet so i wont move my coral frags yet?

Arkayology Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 The tank has been set up for a week or so?? It seems like you can add some snails and hermits and see how they do. I wouldn't add any fish yet as things can change very quickly in a small and new setup. Link to comment

My cuc will consist of 3 trochus, 4 nerites, 4 Nassarius & 5 dwarf cereths, no crabs. Any supplemental feeding needs to be done? Link to comment
