OK ,
1, what do you plan ? a "fish only" with live rock ? or A full blown reef ?
2, do you have an RO unit ? "reverse osmosis" ( to remove all the nasteys from your tap water that can cause high readings and some chemicals in straight for the "tap" can harm/kill your fish.
3, sand bed in the bottom of the tank ? or did you use the sand it came with when the tank was given to you ? ( if so ' the sand is most likely filthy and needs to be washed out )
4, you have enough circulation ? i.e , main water pump, skimmer in place ? ,, good filtration system ? ( large tanks require this if you have quite a few fish/reef )
5, how long has the tank been running ?
6, how "curred" was the live rock that you obtained from the lfs ? |
