Joshlikesfish Posted January 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Its been running two days. All the rock is cycled from Davids tank and I'll be getting my skimmer asap. I'm sure it will all be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirio Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Skimmer + Consistent water changes early on = Should be fine. When I brought ar_photog's Nano I had to transport it all , and mix new water etc, I only lost a SPS frag which wasn't too much of a surprise Oh and, looking good so far :thup: .

livingart Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 the move will create a small cycle in itself all surfaces that have become dry in the move or are new will cycle as well some bacteria will have died off also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livingart Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 :slfg: it pays to have clean water close at hand with marines i have found it pays to expect the worst and be ready for it the best treatment is water changes, i usually have the 1,000 litre container full :thup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshlikesfish Posted January 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 David gave me like 60l of RODI water plus I still have like 16kg of red sea salt left so as soon as I see any signs of anything I'll be ready Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spoon Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 looks good as so far , you may want to move the rock away from the edge of the glass as it will make it difficult to clean dont just leave enough room for a magnet cleaner either as they wont work getting coralinne algae off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
