sawltydawg Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 I have a 29 tht has been up for about 6 days. I added 20lbs LS at startup. I had a brown tint to water yesterday and an accumulation of brown showing on some dead coral in tank. I added some LR two days after setup and am now waiting. Today water seems a lot clearer. Is this just the beginning of cycle? Link to comment
Gutterdawg Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 did u use tap water for your SW mix? Link to comment
snowlancer2720 Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Wellcome to N-R! Yep, this is your cycle (sounds like that "this is your life" show ) Test it in about a week and see where your levels are, they should be zero'ed in about a week and a half/ two weeks Link to comment
sawltydawg Posted March 28, 2006 Author Share Posted March 28, 2006 did u use tap water for your SW mix? Yes I afraid so. Is this going to cause more problems later. I am planning on having a FOWLR. Looking at the aquapod 24 for small reef. Thanks. Link to comment
proraptor Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 You should change out all the water...Tap = super bad and is going to give you huge algae problems Link to comment
