Hi All!!! Ohmigosh I'm so excited...and no, I just CANNOT hide it... My tank is coming today!!
:jumping: :jumping: :jumping: :jumping:
I'll take myriad pix of it for all those who've asked, and even for all of y'all who havent
One thing - I can't buy salt, r/o water, live rock OR substrate 'till next week!
What can I do to prepare my tank in the meantime?
I've read that filling it with water for 24hrs to check for leaks might be a good idea - but I live in Jersey and I'm VERY concerned about putting plain tap water in there - should I treat it even though it'd only be in there for 24 hours? I DO have a Brita water filter - should I run the tapwater through the Brita before I put it in the tank, or does that not get rid of enough chlorine/metals to make a difference? :help:
Thank you all sooooo much for your continuing encouragement - y'all ROCK! :cheer:
