hi,
I have had a saltwater fo tank set up for about a year and a half now. It is a 46-gallon bow-front. The inhabitants are:
1-coral beauty angelfish
2-firefish gobies
4-green chromis
1-cloudy damsel
1-yellowtail damsel
1-ocellaris clown
2-peppermint shrimp
I did not buy any lr at the beginning of my cycle and since I have resently purchased my coral beauty, I know that he needs lots of rockwork...(I know the firefish will enjoy it too). I have decided to buy about 90 lbs. of it, is that the right amount? While I am doing so I want to make other additions to the tank, like a feather duster...etc. (no more fish). I have been also wondering about my protein skimmer. I have been repeatedly adjusting it but it has not had anything in my collection cup. The tests all read fine (ph 8.2, ammonia 0ppm, nitrite 0ppp, nitrate 0ppm). Any thoughts? I am only 12 and I have to finance the tank myself, so in your suggestions please be aware of my budget. Thanks!
