Starting up a 720 Gallon and seeking suggestions in Miami!

[locito277]

I noticed the 3 stripe damsel... those things are evil!! Looking forward to the future fish additions.

Only 2 they at least stay smaller. The domino amd neons were nonos there's another one that gets huge and ugly can't remember their names now. I like the three stripes. They'll be the smaller guys so not too worried!

how much did you get from Reef cleaners?

I asked john for a quote and I got something like 1000+ snails

 

[locito277]

No start small. I ordered the 105 gallon pkg. Inadded 3 emerald crabs and a few snails of different types. Long story short if you order 1000 snails they will
Starve in no time. You'll have 998 empty shells and your tank will have a spike in nutrients from the decaying bodies. In a week or so depending on how everyone holds up I'll as maybe 10 turnos and 3 margarita snails. A few cucumbers and starfish. Those pkg they push on you are an exaggeration.

Hey guys

got Chaeto, red Algae of some sort, grape Caulerpa and regular Caulerpa growing nicely in the sump. Connected the Mars lights sideways for now. Have to finish plumbing the remaining reactors below the tank prior to hanging the 2 mars lights. No lights in DT yet. Ran into some hiccups and RO almost finished as well. Checked parameters and ammonia is gone and Nitrite is at .02. One week cycle isn't bad. Also found an urchin in my LR that must have hitchhikers on the LR.

Great news today!! Tank has 0 Nitrites. One week cycle with Dr Tims. Stuff really works. Added our first few post cycle fish in today. A wrasse 5 firefish One purple firefish. Lawnmower blenny and another type of plenty.

Wish I had the lights installed so you can see the colors on them.

very nice! I like your fish orders. get all the skiddish ones settled in first. any other fish you plan to get 5 or more? I'm thinking a group of 9 royal gramma. very colorful and peaceful. they stay in a cave underpath area so you will see all of them near each other, kinda schooling

Royal grammas are definitely a possibility wondering if Regals are skittish? Would add them as well. Next is likely a bubble tip as in a couple of weeks the clowns come home. I'll do a buy a week. Definitely be getting some pods now.

We got one in. Let's take it step
By step still have to finish all the lights, the ATO and Genesis AWC, hook up all the reactors and some black patch ups here and there. Wish I had an easy button [emoji23]

Thx I was shocked at how nice it looked with just the three Kessils. Can't wait to have all the equipment tied in. My MP60
Adapter crapped out on me which had me a bit down.

Sorry about that bud. I've had good luck with the ecotech folks. I'm sure their service will be solid. They have a sponsor forum on here as well.
