Hey Everyone,
slowly getting closer to the point of tearing down the 40 gallon breeder and chafing it into saltwater. For filtration it will have an aqua clear 70 with 2 foams t comes with as well as a felt pad on top for mechanical filtration and for bio filtration I will have a 2 liter bottle filled with k2 to create a moving bed filter inside the tank. As well as put in a 1 inch of sand and about 25-35 pounds of dry rock.
Im looking for ideas on what to put inside the tank I was thinking of it to be an eventual scooter and mandarin tank but that will take months to prepare the rocks and establish good copepods.
So Ive basically been looking on cool fish to place in it I have had saltwater tanks before just not this small of a tank also just for an idea is there any led lights or t5s under $100 that will be good enough to grow corals like shrooms,polyps,montipora...no sps?
Also I was thinking of maybe a one specie tank like an octopus however even with the help of tonmo I'm unsure to even find the hardier octopus species around here.
