I have three clams in my tank without a mh or t5's so you can keep these real nice corals and clams in different light without hurting them.

just let it settle because the sand is going to fill your filter up with it.

Please don't give this advice out. It is definitely not what you want to do if you plan on keeping sps and clams. Stick with halides or t5-ho's for higher demanding coral.
Congrats on the Biocube 29. Definitely get a heater and timers. Looking forward to seeing everything transferred over. Just be sure to resize them

went out today and spent the rest of my christmas money on a testkit and 7g of distilled water.
I did this about 3 hours ago but lets see if i can remember this right.
pH: 8.4
Nitrite: 0
Nitrate: somewhere between 0 and 5
Ammonia: .5
Also did a 2g water change tonight (I need a bigger bucket lol)
SG: 1.024
Regular water changes should keep my fish, LR, and feather duster alive correct?
I put up two trumpets and an Epiphone Les paul electric guitar on craigslist so i should have some gooood money coming in soon!!! Then i can really get some stuff going with my tank.
