Hey everyone I'm new to saltwater and just need advice on equipment to use, cycling procedures and any other useful information that you guys can give to a complete newbie.
Tank Stats: 2 inches of live sand 8lbs of live rock Roughly 8lbs "dead" rock One power head Whisper filter 20 gallon Plans: I really don't plan on corals but later on I would like to have some anemones maybe when I upgrade tank size. My main reason for the 20 gallon setup is for a single peacock mantis shrimp. Yes I know the hazards and all information on this creature so I just need info on proper care,equipment, etc of a saltwater habitat I just setup this 20 and it is about a week into just sitting there. After I learn how to manage the tank I want to convert my freshwater 55 to salt. Any tips/help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Tommy --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=34.933352,-80.992738 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Welcome to RC there is a wealth of knowlege here. I was all set to rush into a bigger tank. But after reading and learning. I am being patient. So that I get the right equipment the first time. Next time.
