Hey guys finally got my 2nd 50 gallon tank set up. Now just letting go through the cycle. For this tank there is very little rock but a lot of open space to swim because I want my fish to have a lot of open room. Plus when I get SPS, I want it to be able to grow as much as possible without obstacles

If I use Special Blend and established live rock to seed the tank, how much faster will it go through the cycle?

If there is no livestock that requires light then there is no need to run them.

Some people will run them if they have hitchhiker corals when they start a tank.

Keep them off and put them on when you want to look or work on the tank

I had catch an eibli angel that had to get out of there and while I did that I destroyed my entire rockwork.

Here it is again... still not satisfied. I feel like it could be better.

I tried using J-B waterweld... It's okay... but it doesn't hold strong at all. If I accidently hit one of the rocks, it would fall apart.

Was going to post a bunch of pics but internet is being slow so I'll just post a few

Open to any opinions or criticisms!
