Jumping Back In

Whoa, that looks really cool. Just because I'm cautious to a fault, I'd wait just maybe a week or two (or three) more to ensure stability of your readings before adding anything. Any algae yet at all?

We are fully cycled and have added our first fish. Just starting to turn on some lights. Really trying to take it slow.

Where did you get your fish? They look great.

They all came from Petco. That may not be popular with some but we have had great luck with Petco fish.

Wow, it’s really coming together I see.
Algae sheet on a clip for those tangs if not already employed.
Continue to master the water chemistry and keep the fluxes to the min.
It’s normal in the first two months or so for parameter swings, keep an eye on those.
That helps speed the process.
Slow is always good.
Enjoy!

Which Petco do you guys go to? Ellisville is very hit or miss. Fenton Petco is great for SW livestock..

We have been to them all. The Petco at Gravois Bluffs is by far the best one around.

Yep, that’s what I call the Fenton Petco. I’ve bought quite a bit of inverts and corals from them. Their fish manager is top notch.
