I’ve kept freshwater tanks, some heavily planted for a long time now but decided it was time to try saltwater. Biggest difference I noticed right away is how much slower things happen with a saltwater tank. Although I’m sure both fresh and salt water tanks can crash equally fast.
First tank was a little (micro actually) 2.5 gallon pico tank set up in December. Then I happened to run across an Aqueon evolve 8 on sale and picked that up. Switched everything to the evolve a couple weeks ago.
Tank contents:
Stock Evolve lights and water pump (which is noisy :upset
2.5 lbs of cured Pukani dry live rock.
Aragonite dry sand
1 – 2 small pieces of real live rock carried over from the pico tank
A few small Zoa’s, mushrooms, paly’s and 2 Astraea snails and 1 Nassarius snail
I plan on doing a DIY LED light fixture in the next two weeks.
CREE LED’s with dimmers.
Any suggestions on anything?
Here's my tank
