hello to everyone on the forum!!..my names ed..just introducing myself. I just picked up a 39g reef tank. More specifically a tank that had maybe about 30lbs of live rock and about 1.5" of sand. transported everything back to my place safely with only maybe 3g of water loss due to a loose lid on a cooler. Im not exactly new to salt water but I still have alot to learn. my first crash course tank was a 60g FO tank that I had up for about 5 years and only 4 fish died out of the 15 I've had. Id like to think that it wasn't totally bad since I've had more FW fish die on me in a tank that was only a year old?..anywho..I got the SW itch again and decided to go reef with like 4-6 tops and have a bunch of wigglies on the rocks. So far the setup I have is a 39g tank, CPR bakpak skimmer, koralia powerhead, of course a heater, and a coralife 65x2 PC light I believe?. all in working order. I know I have to let the tank marinate for many moons befor I can add livestock. I wasn't planning on adding fish for maybe 2-3 months. But this tank I purchased was already up and running for a few weeks already. so there is live stuff goin on. skimmer has the green tea thing going and there's purple on some of the rocks also. so yeah just letting everyone know what's you going on. ReefSD will be my goto place and hopefully can make some new friends as well!..happy tanking all!!
