suphew Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 iv had it in a contaner for about 7 weeks with a power head going so will that do it Should have cured it enough to start adding a few fish slowly and some hardier corals. But be warned if you started with un-cured rock you will have round 9 months of algae stages to go through, you should start to see brown diatom algae soon. Suggest you get an algae eating fish as one of your first, a blenny would be best or maybe a tang. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom_Shannon Posted September 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 the reason the rock is so white is cause i bleached it befor i cycled it what fish will be better and more harder the blenny or a tang as i was told to use some thing that can handel a new tank a bit better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suphew Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Your best bet is to work out all the fish you would like to keep now, and then work out a plan on how to add them to the tank. You don't need to add an algae eating fish first, just plan on wanted to add one early on. I'm sure others will give advise as well, but I would be looking at adding a pair of clowns first, they are hardy and wont get too upset when you add other fish later on, as tangs might. You could add a blenny now, but you would have to be very careful what type since some will ONLY eat algae. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
