main thing is weekely water changes after the first 3 weeks leave the water in for 3 weeks never touch just top off with RO/DI nothing else if you dont use RO/DI you will have horrible PH issues and will hve to get a buffer and addign chemicals sucks. after 2 weeks add about 3 scarlet crabs and 1 blue legged crab then the week after add maybe a damsel just to get it started you dont have to keep him just get him for wht that tank needs to get going. all you will need to add is maybe some phytoplankton and a couple drops of essential elements. everything else is a snap hit me up if y0u want to know anyting else:) oh and dont get scared when everything turns brown its natural its called a diatom bloom and it happens to everyone, just turn the lights off for a day and dont feed for about a week and remember when you feed only 1 little piece per animal never overfeed it will be your worse mistake remember a fishes stomach is as big as its eyeball dont FORGET THAT!!!
