Ok, I just set my tank up yesterday. I got the water already mixed from the fish shop. I tested it tonight and all the tests came out perfect - 0 ppg for the Nitrates (NO-2 & NO-3), Phosphate, and Ammonia. The only one I couldn't test was pH because the bottle didnt have a dropper on it (I'll bring it back tomorrow.) I got a calcium test, but didnt do it because I just have water, sand, and 1 piece of live rock (2.5 lbs) no coral yet. I will be going out and getting a thermometer tomorrow, what is the best type to get, or should I get more than 1 type? I dont care about cost, I just want it to be accurate. Now, is 3-4 weeks a good waiting period, if everything stays pretty much the same throughout that time, before I can introduce fish? I will be getting around 20 lbs more of live rock this weekend. I know I have to be patient, but its so hard! I have been browsing this website and a few others looking at all the different things I can put in my tank and its KILLING me!
