Hey just bought a new 10g to kick of my reef tank, Ive been fascinated by them for years and finally took the leap.
Tank dimensions 52cm x 26 x 27.5
Built in filter/overflow with carbon,ceramic and sponge filters
LED's are only 3watt..
Ive ordered a nano powerhead and 3Watt x 6 L.E.D off fish-street.com
Bought 3KG of dry rock as there live rock is covered with lots of brown stuff at shop
Anyways a few quick questions.
1. Can i cycle the dry rock in the tank without using a piece of live rock? or should i get a small piece of live rock to start?
2. I dont plan on getting a skimmer straight away.. Can i use the current filtration or should i remove and put some other media?
3. Can i start cycling the tank using only the stock leds and filter pump while waiting for my powerhead and led to arrive
