thanks. i would say about 80 pounds live rock and 40 pounds sand/cc mixed.
the lighting is a 250 watt metal halide and 2 24 inch actinics.i have the actinics on 12 hours and the halides on 10. I use a large canister filter,a two sided Biowheel,and a prism skimmer. very soon to switch to a sump system.
There are several people on the forums alot more experienced than me to ask for advice,but here goes.
READ,STUDY,READ,WAIT,WAIT,WAIT. That may sound dumb, but every problem i have ever had has been directly because of RUSHING my tank.
I think everyone would agree PATIENCE IS KING.
thanks again and good luck with your tank
