Right now Im re-starting my 50 gal. tank. I just set it up today, so needless to say Its going to be awhile before I can even think about putting fish in there, much less coral. But I am wanting to take a shot at making it a reef tank. I don't know alot about reef tanks (although I work at *****...but hey, our fish suck ) So I figured although its going to be awhile before I can introduce any coral to the tank, if I learn about it now, i'll have a better chance at success. What do I need to do to prepare the tank to be a reef tank? I know water conditions have to be pretty good. When I do water changes I use RO saltwater from the fish store, and use distilled water to top off. What about all those chemicals I see? Which ones will I need to add to the tank? Any advice would help seeing as I know nothing! Thanks.
