    Yup wait two weeks I know it seems like forever lol. Bit you will see stuff happen tank will start to turn brown from diatoms will eventually go away then maybe some cyno witch Is red and like a blanket on sand that's a pain so make sure u have good flow. If u want to get stuff and I'm sure u do buy equipment. Your power heads your testing stuff get some 2 part to dose tank with calcium. A heater if u need one. Something better than the hang on salt thing u got going lol maybe new bulbs if u bought tank used. Some meds like coral rx dip and iodine some garlic drops. That kinda stuff Then a clean up crew from reefcleaners then you can begin your never ending buying fish and coral adventure.

    That just popped up after my order! I filled it out and sent it in ... Is the pump in my tank enough circulation or do I need a powerhead?

    They say 50x over lol I have my return and three power heads. Two nano 240 korilla and a marine land 550 so that's on u what u chose but yes u need some. Check out Cl also this hobby gets expensive and is worth looking for deals.

    A powerhead can really never hurt. Depends on the coral you choose to get.

    sorry for misspelling before my iphone is a little slow...
