Well at last after all the waiting and preperation i`m getting my first additions(fish) to my reef tank tomorrow, my tank has cycled and iv`e had my cleanup crew in for week now all tests look ok.
amonia=0
nitrite=0
nitrate=0-10
ph=8.2
salinity=1022.
Going for a couple of clowns first, not sure what type yet but looking forward to seeing them in there new home its taken me quite a while to get to this stage so its a big step.I have a few douts about lighting times i have halides&blue effect lights i was thinking of about six hours for the halides then bring in the blue moonlights in gradually over a couple of hours but i will seek advice on this and im sure some of you nice people will advise me,more pics to come as i progress ........cryo.:smokin:
Aquamedic Chromis tank.
About 12 hemit crabs of different sizes.
About 12 turbo snails.
15 kgs live rock.;)
 
Do you have any fluorescent lighting?

Here was my lighting schedule:
8:00am T-5 Actinics on
8:15am Moonlights off
9:00am MH 1 on
9:15am MH 2 on
8:00pm MH 1 off
8:15pm MH 2 off
9:45pm Moonlights on
10:00pm T-5 actinics off

This was programmed for my schedule so I would have time to enjoy the tank while I was home and it worked great for me while my tank was up.
