What order to do these in...

[fugzz]

Ok so heres what i want to do
1. Change my blue pebble rocks for Livesand or some finer white gravel
2. Get glass lid cut to size for my tank and buy lighting to go ontop
3. Buy cleaning crew
4. Buy corals/inverts (BTA or something similar to make my tank more interesting)
What order should i do these in, keeping in mind my tank already has 6 fish and 9kg of Liverock (with no lighting at all cause my hood light sh!t itself)...

Change to live sand now.
Don't get glass tops especially if you get corals because the lights required for them will cook the tank with glass lids.
Get BTA only after 9-12 months. They cannot take unstable water and need intense lighting.
Clean up crew anytime

No glass lid? what would you recommend then? Also the water is pretty stable, its been running for over a year now... But i will probably have to wait a while anyway before i can afford anything worth while..

i've seen people with glass lids and lighting fixtures..you should be fine unless you live in a really hot place..then its bad..i live in WA state so i want all that heat in my tank...haha i dont have to buy a heater =D

I agree with everything hot883 said in their post...especially no glass lids...

no glass lids they need constant cleaning
