New to the hobby

[TheCrab]

Hey guys! Glad to be here in ReefCentral. I am new to the hobby and just put together my first reef tank a couple weeks ago. I had done freshwater some times before but this is my first venture into salt! So far I am loving this hobby

Welcome to Reef Central. Tell us a little about your tank.

My tank is a 20 long, and so far I am running a seachem tidal 55, a fluval heater, I gave like 16 pounds of LR, 20 lbs of sand, right now the only live stock is a pair of clowns, a small hermit, a duncan coral, an eagle eye zoa, and a kryptonite gsp frag. I will get some pictures in a bit

Still go slow. You don't want to add too much and upset the balance in your tack.

for sure, it had been a while since I added some fish. I just got an micromussa, something I don't know, and a fire fish. That and 10 astrea snails is all I got the other day.
