92 gal 4 month old tank with approx 70lb of live rock. Is that enough live rock for a Goby? What should I be feeding him? Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

I have a 92gal tank with 65-70lb live rock. Tank is four months old, and all levels are good. I have 3 green chromis, 2 clown fish and a mandarin goby. I want to add a hardy, peacefull fish(or pair) but don't know what. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks.

I did not plan on adding anybody to my tank untill the first week of September. The tank has ben cycling for only 10 days, and I have ben adding live rock only, while going through the spikes. The good news is everything is coming into line, the bad news is I got a nice piece of lr from lfs...

it's neo.

I'll take that pushy [hr] . I think he's bluffing personially. lol

Yep coctail shrimp it is two of them. If all is good, is it ok to add cleaner crew and chromis the first week of sep?

Originally posted by Salty Cheese IMO I don't think it really matters, some people leave them in for a week, but if the ammonia has spiked I think it would be ok to take it out. It's not going to make the cycle happen any faster. Not looking to speed up the cycle. You have given me good...

Originally posted by splash I am no expert, but you should have levels of 0 for ammonia, 0 nitrite and 0 nitrate. Nitrate can be a bit more forgiving. The readings you have are bad. You need to be patient and wait! i'M NOT ADDING ANYTHINGFOR A WHILE, JUST WAS WONDERING WHERE i AM IN MY CYCLE...

Ammonia is at .55. I the Put shrimp in four days ago, and Ammonia seems to have peaked. Ph is between 8.1-8.2, Nitrite is at .25, and nitrate is 15. What kind of shape am I in? Should I keep shrimp in, or take them (two)out? Tank is 92gal. Any input would be appreciated. Now have 20lb...

Originally posted by Coxy101 Depends - are you planning on a reef in the future or fish only. If you're going reef in the future --- the 3 chromis and clownfish (how 'bout 2) will do great. How about some type of tang? Yellow perhaps? Or purple firefish gobies - I have 2 and they're pretty...

Originally posted by scuba-Raru I have a 10 gallon Aquasystem tank, I just bought it from a friend who had it for 6 years, its my first saltewater tank. Ive had it for 4 months already. I need ideas onwhat can be done with a tank this size, Reef? (do I have enough light?) Fish Only? (what kinds...

Originally posted by Coxy101 Yep - that's fine then. Great looking tank! What do ya think you're going to put in it?:happy: 3 cromies, 1 clown, then I have no idea. what do you think?

Originally posted by wocka i want to get that same light fixture for my 20g. what size is ur tank? 92 gallon.

Originally posted by Coxy101 are you getting your LR locally and is it "precured"? If so, adding it won't be a problem once you have your cycle completed. The problem with adding tons of shipped or uncured LR to your tank after the cycle is over is that it could cause it to cycle again...

Originally posted by wocka is that a 150w mh hqi pendent? yes.

Originally posted by Hiddenicon my tank has been set up for about 2 months. If i wanna add more live rock should i do it slowly? I am told the sooner you add rock, and the more, the better. lfs said that.

y/ is that a good thing? lol

ok, I set up my tank Monday(with a lot of help from my friend Dave) thanks Dave. It has 40lb live sand, 60lb base rock, and only 7lb live rock. Cycling tank w/shrimp. I will be adding approximately 70-80lb's live rock over the next month, then fish. I guess what I'm asking is whats it look...

Originally posted by Big Slick Did you get your lights up? you didn't get your shrimp last night, did you? they are up now, shrimp in today.

The tank is set up for for four days now and it looks great. However I don't want to sacrifice any fish to start my cycle. What type of shrimp do I use to get the cycle going? How many? and for how long? Any input would be great. The tank is 92gal and will be adding live rock this coming...
