 Reading matterial on reefs
Hello,
I have just started to build my first SW tank, my goal is to have a reef tank with corals, clownfish, etc..., I have it up and starting to cycle now. I have a 6 hour business flight that I will be taking and nothing to really do on the plane, so... What would be a good book to introduce me to the different types of corals, inverts, etc that I should know about for my tank?
At the moment I am cycling with 3 yellow tailed blue damsels as my bio load for the bacteria and the live sand to have a base set of bacteria in the water. The tank was running for about a week before the introduction of the damsels.
Also for now I only have some florescent lights on the system for the damsels, but in about 3 months was looking to getting the solaris led lighting system, was figuring by around then the tank should be stabilized enough to be starting on some inverts/corals.
System specs;
86 Gallon (48" x 18" x 23")
20 or so gallon sump, don't remember
Octopus skimmer
cpr overflow with a modified durso pipe to keep it quiet
mag 9.5 return pump
400w heater
40 lbs aragonite sand + 20 lbs caribsea live sand
30 lbs diy base rock (will have a total of about 100 lbs, but it i don't have the space to cure it all at once so will be adding more base rock as it cures.)
