Hey guys,
Just wanted to share my first SW tank and get your opinions. My gf and I made the stand ourselves out of 2x4s and 4x4s.
Equipment is as follows:
DIY stand
JBJ 30 Rimless All-In-One (w/ dual return pumps)
2x Eheim Jager 50w heaters
2x Koralia Nano 240GPH powerheads
Hydor SlimSkim Nano Protein Skimmer
Chinese 120w 3-channel programmable LED fixture
JBJ Auto Top Off w/ Aqualifter pump
36 lbs Fiji Live Rock
20 lbs CaribSea Live Sand
The skimmer is taking up one of the overflow areas. In the other one I left in the media basket, but it only has carbon and purigen and a little filter floss at the top which I will replace every 3 days or so. Tank has been up for about 5 days now.
Specific gravity is at 1.024 @ 78F.
pH - 8.0-8.1
Ammonia - A little over 0.50 ppm (I added some Dr. Tims ammonia to speed the cycle)
Nitrite - Between 0.50 and 1.0 ppm
Nitrates - About 20 ppm
Added more rock:
