Istarted another 20 gallon reef and I have 50 lbs of live sand and 78 lbs of aquacultured liverock, I started the tank a week ago and when I did At work we have a 150 reef set up thats been running for almost 8 years so I took a couple of gallons of water out of it and put that in my tank when I started it. Like I said I have 50 lbs of live sand and 78 lbs of live rock, 2 choco chip starts and 2 pepermint shrimp, when do you think i could ad a percula safely?

Like he said, just check the parameters, but i would really like to know how deep your sand bed is becuase 50lbs, in that small of a tank seems to be really deep and could give you major problems in the future. Also how did you get almost 80lbs of rock in there? You have to share the secret cuz im doin somethin wrong with my aquascaping.

the live sand is about 2/12 3in deep and i stacked all the live rock aroun the back and sides and kinda jenga stilled it threw out the tank so there is lots of caves and such
