SeaMountain Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 sherman... When you say you recently set up your tank, was that as recent as yesterday, last week, or a couple of months ago? Have you tested water parameters to see if your cycle has completed? Ammonia? Nitrite? Nitrates? Ph and K okay? SG around the 1.023 mark? If your tank has cycled and all your parameters are decent. Drop in a few corals. Mushrooms. Ricordeas. Zoos. Colts are all good starts. Do a search on beginner corals and you have all the info you need to get started. Best of luck to you! Link to comment
shermantt2001 Posted August 6, 2003 Author Share Posted August 6, 2003 thks for the info, yes my tank has been cycled, it was about a month now. And over a week when i added the crab/snails. The ammonia/nitrate is @ 0 and nitrate around 15ppm. Ph is good @ 8.2 with sp 1.023 thks for the suggestions.. Link to comment
