Frag tank or Coral Colonies????? AHHHH

I like all of your ideas but i think i like blackraven's the best! I am going to get the frag tank then frag for more frags! LOL If or when i get the tank i will definetly put some pics up!

 

One more question... Do i have to cycle my water before adding frags? All there will be is a little compartment in the back where i will stick some algae and the frags and egg crate. No live rock or live sand. I was just going to get 10 gal of saltwater at my lfs. Also, do you think i should add anything to my water or not? If so, what? Thanks for the help again!

 

Acans, Duncans are just a few of good frags to start with.

I would also consider a cuc made up of some snails once you start to grow some film algae.

 

What is a "cuc"? Thanks. Do you think i need a protein skimmer on a frag tank? If a protein skimmer takes out the fish waste, why do you need it on a frag tank, right?

 

i would go with your tank. you can always set up a frag tank, you can even put a small one in your tank later on.

so for me i would put more corals in my tank.

btw cuc means clean up crew

 

Thank you!

 

i have been hearing that you still need to have a protein skimmer on a frag tank. b/c corals have wast to.

 

auariaman how long has your tank been up??

and i really think you should wait until it cycles to put fish or corals into it.

 

Frag tank is comin by the ups man tomorrow!! There will be some goodies at my door when I get home tomorrow from school!!!
