Ocho Cinco Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 For sure look at others tank threads. The only problem is that searching on this site is horrible! Link to comment

nckwrn Posted December 10, 2008 Author Share Posted December 10, 2008 The Chemicals and Equipment came today. I turned on the heater and got rid of the bioballs. My current filter configuration is: Chamber 1: Heater, Chamber 2: Filter Floss, Purigen, Filter Floss, Chemipure Elite, Filter Floss, Chamber 3: Pump and Thermometer. Does that sound good to you guys? Any suggestions? Link to comment
nckwrn Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 Finally ordered some Live Rock from Liveaquaria Fiji Premium Live Rock. I got 45 pounds of it, there should be a little extra that I'm hoping I can sell to my LFS. It should be here tomorrow. Link to comment
Nosey Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 They say to use about 1 to 1.5lbs of LR per Gallon. If you go with the 1.5lbs per gal that will leave you with 1.5lbs extra. I would go with 1 lbs per gallon, so maybe 28-29lbs of LR for your main, and that way you will have room to make up the rest with the rock that comes with your coral. PS You have more people commenting on your tank than I do, so don’t feel so bad. I think it helps if your….maybe DD or FFF…lol….Just joking. Link to comment

mkregs Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Just a couple of suggestions for you.... When you're ready to put your LR in your tank, make sure you landscape it so that the frags you add later will get plenty of light. I have approx 27lbs of LR in my BC29 layered on about a 45degree angle. I would suggest you take a look at some of the pics of tanks on the forums or just go to youtube and search the biocubes on there. I have seen pics of some sick tanks out there that might give you some ideas. Did you get your temp up when you installed your heater?? Hopefully in the 80~82 range now? Are you running a media rack in Chamber 2? Link to comment

Chitons are crazy, I just got two of them. Is this a reefcleaners.org order? If so John will probably throw in more snails then you order. I got about 2x the snails I ordered. Link to comment
