Cycled Salt Water and Large Coralline Covered Shells/Crushed Coral Pieces
Cycled Salt Water and Large Coralline Covered Shells/Crushed Coral Pieces
At the end, the water in the tank has to go. I hate to see it go wasted to the garden and sewer system.
As I have been emptying the tank and removing the rocks, I have been also topping off with new fresh RO/DI salt water (using Instant Ocean Salt). So, I will have about 225 gallons of good quality cycled water that will help some of you jump start a reef system. Free, first come first served. Let me know how many gallons you need and I will put you in the list.
You will need to bring your containers to carry your water. And with the speed the tank has been emptying, I guess it will be available this weekend or early next week. I will post an update when the water is ready to drain.
I don't have sand bed, but large crushed coral pieces and shells at the bottom, about 1/2"-1" thick. For those of you who have seen it and liked it, it is good alternative to bare bottom. I will sell it as live rock. So, another good opportunity to jump start coralline and avoid cycling from start. Let me know if you need it. If you get water and these shells, you pretty much have an established reef from day one.
Thanks,
Max
