I had my water tested at my LSF and they said that my calcium was more than enough. I get it tested every time I go there.
I have a K1 for the flow and a flo deflector(free from the LFS) from the return pump. Is that enough?

My LFS got one but it turned out to be a medium size and it'll fit in the back, but I want to place it on the side, so the small size will arrive at the end of the week. The light is till on it's way!

K1 should be good, but i got 2 in my 24G and seems perfect
Cant wait to see the light and fuge added
+1 for adding fuge on side. tank seems to be 100 times better than when it was in back

The friend that I was going to give it to said that it would survive in my tank and we left it there for 2 days and it opened up right away and seems to enjoy itself in my nano, I've been adding extra vitamins/calcium for corals so that seems to be helping a lot!
I'm off to my LFS to start picking out some easy corals to begin with!

What are you adding? Are you testing for calcium? What is you calcium level? Just remember to never dose anything that you cannot test for. As for going to get more coral, just take it slow, maybe only get 1 or 2 pieces as you just got done with cycling

I got my water tested 2 days ago and the calcium seemed to be around 400-ish. I get it tested at my LFS and by a friend.
I might just buy 1 or 2 actually, I want a button and maybe a pom pom or something easy

Just came back from my LFS and bought some stuff. I got a button that has like 4 different colors and I really liked it and another one that I forgot it's name. It looks like grass. Star or something. Then the guy was breaking down some corals because they were getting big and he gave me a little Pom Pom and 2 Duncans for free!
I told him about the new light that I got and he said that with my water parameters and that light I got, it'll be perfect for corals from now on.
I can't find the charger for my camera, but as soon as I find it I'll post pics!

Got your sun-pod up and running yet?
I'm on that right now.
I need to go to a Home Depot or something and buy mesh to cover the top of my tank. Any suggestions on what kind? Or anything will do?
