The lights will be on leggs. Other than the plate the tank is open. I added the lights to 6x just to be sure.

Thank you for the suggestions. There is no top, except for the annoying glass plate in the middle that supports the tank. I am planning on adding more rock. Thought that 60 pounds would cover more. I will add more detailed pics this week.

It's 2.0! Doing a water change now.

Its on some corals too that are attached to the rock. I was getting nervous for a bit.

I had my tank set up for a few days now. This morning I noticed that the rock is turning white. Is this part of the cycle? The photo below is right before putting the rock in the tank. Here is what it looks like now. Any ideas whats causing this?

I recently purchased some live rock, today I noticed some Aiptasia. How do I get rid of them?

Only been set-up for a day. Just added the live rock and a few hitch Hikers that came with the rock.

This coral came attached to my live rock. Anyone know the name of it is? Rock came from Florida.

Finally got my tank filled and have everything running. I am using a Corallife Super Skimmer 65. Right away when I power it up water fills in the collection cup. I played with all the knobs and same result happens. Any ideas?

This is the best pic I can get. Its a small shrimp, about a pinkie finger nail size.

Got my box of live rock in today. Had several hitch hikers. No idea what this is and if it is safe to put in my reef. Any ideas?

Thank you for the info!
