Any other ideas or suggestions?

Can you give me any advice on a protein skimmer? We have a 120 gallon tank with Tidepool2 filtrations system. We only have three fish so far, 2 clownfish and a Goby, but I thin I need a protein skimmer before we add any more.

Are there certain fish we have to have? Live cleaners? And, should these be added first?

Our tank has now completed it's cycle. Yipee Skippy :) Now we need to move forward. We purchased two clowfish and a Goby. Should we wait a week and see how they do before adding more? Our tank is 120 gallons and is not a reef tank. We have left that option open in the future. It was my...

We have had our 120 gal tank up and running for three weeks now. We have put live sand and about 90lbs of live rock. Now we have a brown algea all over the rock. Is this normal? The nitrates are still to high to add fish. Is this part of the cycling and what will happen next? This is not a...

We have just started the set up. The live rock has been in for about two weeks now. We now have brown algea all over the rocks and the sand. Is this normal? Our Nitrates are still pretty high.

How much is needed. We have a 120 gallon tank, and want it for fish and maybe reef at a later date. How much live rock is needed?

What would you suggest for a clean up crew?

We have set up our 120 gallon acquarium. We have live sand and live rock. The nitrate level is at 0. Am I now ready for fish? Should I start with a clean-up crew first or what do you suggest.

Thanks guys. So when should I add the cleaner crew and are the package deals the best?

I am taking out the filters I have in my new 120 gal tank, and putting in the Tidepool 2 system. I purchased 22 lbs of live rock today too. I will probably order more from this web site, it seems to be cheaper. We didn't want a reef tank, but it looks like it is going that way. I was told to...

We are setting up a 125 gal salt water acquarium. Can you recommend a skimmer and where to get it? This will not be a reef acquarium. Thanks

Fish, not a reef. We have bought a couple of books but they don't tell us what to do next. Is live sand and rock needed?

We just purchased a 120 gallon tank and want to set up for SW. The filters are in, we have aragonite sand in the bottom and the hydrometer is at 1.021. What's Next? Do we need to add rocks or coral or plants? If there are any good books out there please let me know. I have read that you can...

Thanks for the help. We did use live sand and have the filtration system in place. I guess now we just wait for the water to clear?

We just purchased a 120 gallon tank today and have no idea what we are doing. We have it set up for saltwater, but don't know what to do next. Can you help?
