I Have a 29G tall with 16lb of Fuji nano
live rock, with Florida crushed coral. I was thinking on doing a reef tank and adding on 10G, 5G
refugium. The way I’m going to make the
refugium is out of my old tanks. I have protein
skimmer and a light (Satellite 30” Single Compact Fluorescent 10000K/460 Nanometer
Actinic).
I was wondering if I should get more
live rock and if so how much I should add to it? If I could use the crush coral or if I should go with sand? I don't have any fish or coral yet.
I have a canister filter rate now but I’m going to put that on the 55G freshwater tank I’m going to set up in the summer. I know every one out there say use the 55G as your reef tank, but the tank is my dad’s and he wants it to be fresh water and my younger bother wants keep Tetras so I told them I would set it up for them. So that is where my canister is going to go.
I look the TR podcast, and forums. I all most gave up on doing a saltwater tank but after find the podcast, I then realized what I did all wrong and figured that I would give it another try.
