First off do you already have a tank to put these corals in? If not they will be unable to go in this new tank for at least 4 months.

 

[cdub]

Sorry, meant 4 weeks

Also I have never used that salt, but I do recall not hearing great things about it. Might want to get some instant ocean, reef crystals, or sea chem reef salt instead.

 

[ichthyoid]

Ur you can use this and cycle the tank in 5 days (Fritz-Zyme #9, for saltwater). It works.

 

[ilovesam08]

Ohh no I am not getting the livestock yet lol. I cant even set the tank up until christmas =( . I was actually waiting 6 weeks or so until i added the livestock...

But Yeah I like the firefish. Would a small reef safe wrasse be alright in there also?

And the baby is fine. I will post a picture of her. She is 2 months old today.

and thank you. I want to make sure I have everything I want and need for this tank, I am tired of having to settle.

An auto top-off is a must. I use the JBJ and it works great! Would not go nano without one.

Ok I will def check into that. I need to look at the measurments.

 

[jcusmarine]

Mag 3 will not fit. Also, I would highly recommend an Auto Top Off for evap....small tank parameters can swing quickly. Enjoy!!

Cute baby!!

 

[ilovesam08]

does the skimmer i ordered not have a auto top off?

 

[ilovesam08]

Dang that sucks. I already ordered what. Which skimmer should I purchuse?
I am going to spend it back when it arrives, and order a new one

 

[oil_fan]

I'll be honest...I'm not a fan of Red Sea salt mix. I tried a bucket of the stuff and after about 2 months of using it, I had a major HA outbreak. I can't say for sure that's where it came from but I hadn't added anything major that would have likely caused it.

And I've heard of others having similar issues after trying that brand of salt.

 

[ilovesam08]

Ohh ok. So where do i find an auto top off?

 

[ilovesam08]

Does anyone know a link I can look at it?

 

[hackman72]

That's a beautiful baby you have there.

 

[ilovesam08]

thank you. and I just ordered the auto top off.
