I just did this for a friend. We basically put the water and live rock in two 55 gallon drums and the live stock went into his QT tank. We put some live rock in the QT and a power head so there would be no problem with a new cycle. We put a power head and heater in with the rock and corals...

No you have to have a minimum order of $79.00 or they wont ship. Thats the only down side, but they got to make money too.

Your test kit is probly bad. If the water smells Iam sure there should be some ammonia reading by now.

Coraline algea is good for your tank. Phosphate remover will remove the food source of unwanted algeas. I used the phosephate remover when i first setup my 90 a couple of years ago with great success. When you use the phosphate remover keep in in for 48 hours then remove for 48 hours then put...

Great looking setup. How long has been up. I see you got a bit of cyno it looks like going on. If it is add some more current ,l cut back on the lighting and it should start to clear up in no time. Gret looking though.
