I decided to go with the 7Gallon minibow.. I checked it out today and it's very nice.

 

But I didn't buy it yet.. heh

 

I bought the following today from MarineDepot.com and BigAlsOnline.com:

 

SeaTest Hydrometer

Mini-Jet 404 Powerhead

Salifert Nitrogen Cycle Test Kits*

Ebo-Jager 50W Heater

Thermometer

Aquaclear 300 for Refugium

Aquaclear Surface Skimmer

 

The Salifert Nitrogen Cycle kit has all these tests: Ammonia, Nitrite, Nitrate, and pH.

 

All that, plus a tank, live rock, live sand, and a 96W Coralife light.... thats all I'll need untill I'm finished cycling.. right?

 

Oh.. and salt.. whats the best salt to use? I was thinking of using either the Coralife stuff, or Reef Crystals.. ?

Good equipment choices. I think you're set for cycling.

 

Most people use Instant Ocean (IO) salt because it's cheap, common, and nobody ever seems to have trouble with it.

reef crystals is good. I use coralife salt and i dont like it, my calcium is usually high after i mix up some water with it. Id use that or Tropic Marin salt.
