My 55 gallon cube
Hello ya all,
I started a 55 gallon reef- 60*60*60 cm cube reef about two months ago. Unfortunatly i discoverd that my deltec pinwheel had cracked, therfore it went thru a two month cycle with only two black percula. Last week i finally received a new pinewheel so i will start stocking the aquarium soon. I tried going for the minimal aquascape Equipment- not to much at this time: Lighting- aqaumedic ocean plus light- 1*250watt plus 2*24watt T5 actinic. Mp10wes for water movment- will add another in future. Return pump- 5000 l/h hailea Skimmer- deltec mce 600 turbo Chiller 1/5 hp So what do you reefer's think? http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3LwAiv3qeKA |

I had a similar tank.
Start adding a fish at the time. Even though your tank cycled for two months the established bacterial population is sized according to the available nutrients. If you shock the tank with many fish at one time you will see a spike on nutrients and hair algae will tell you that. hope it helps, MaLi
