Thank you all for the useful info... Just from reading other posts we already have a leg up on what we need to focus on..... We have a 150 gallon that we are changing over to salt.... Though we never had a salt tank we do know a little of what we should do, but need to learn alot more before we put any live stock in there.... right now we are still at step one... he just added the salt yesterday and we ordered a wet/dry bio filter with skimmer, right now we have 2 whisper 3s and a fluval 204 canister filter, 2 penguin 170 mph power heads and one larger powerhead.... we added it all up and it was around 10 times the water flow.... He wants to get 2 more powerheads as well... we haven't yet added the sand, the LFS did not have enough so we ordered in and it comes in this week.... we ordered 200 pounds...... How are we doing so far... when should we add LR ... any suggestions?
When it comes time to put in live stock how do I figure out what lives well with what?
I want lots of inverts like crabs and shrimp......Anything weird or interesting.... The purpose of this tank is to help us all relax more , so I want a large community of creatures in this tank...... We was also thinking of putting a divider in the tank so we can have 2 different types of communitys.....I know for sure we need more lighting ... Anything else we should be doing?..... Any help would be great.....
Interested in learning more ***)
