well, the most lighting im wanting is ~5 watts per gallon for the top section, basically because i've seen some corals that require about that online, and after i gain more experience i figure i may try them, but as of now, i just want a frogspawn, lavendar mushroom, some ric. mushrooms, and some zoanthids, and maybe a bubble coral, just until the tank matures and i get used to taking care of them and such, before i move on to anything else.
Also, the LFS estimated about a week tillt he cycle is over, so im going to esitmate two weeks. when i find my wallet i will post my latest water testing reading, going to check my hydrometer also, since it keeps lying to me.

i went ahead and added a dozen small crabs, not 100% sure what they are, because the signs were taken down over them, but he knew what i ment, they are all happy and eating the algea on the rocks, well, all but one, this morning i found his legs and what appeared to be his body just blwoing in the current behind a rock. what could of done it if it is indeed my little crab? because i have fish on reserve for when my tank is safe for them, and im not going to add anything until i know for sure something nots going to kill them...to pretty of a fish to let die by a mistake or another animal..

if you don't already have some. Try to find some chemi-pure elite. That stuff is sweet for keeping a tank clear and clean.
