I want to eventually start adding some easy keeper corals to my tank. Is it necessary to start out with a lot of live rock or can I add that a little at a time along with corals? I have a 15 gal tall tank with about 20 lbs base rock, 5 lbs live rock, 2" sandbed (not live sand). I have two powerheads and a Marineland 3000 HOB wet/dry filter. This is a new tank so I"m in the middle of the cycle right now. I have to upgrade my lights and I"m planning on getting 96 watt power compacts...i think...still looking into that. Would it be better to get the lights first, then add some easy to keep corals and more live rock later? Or get the live rock first, then the lights, then the corals?
Thanks!
