Hello everyone. I just started this hobby about 1 month ago. I was given a 75gal tank by my cousin but I decided to start with a small tank to get experience first before working on a bigger tank. I didn't want to spend a lot of money and mess things up and end up wasting all that hard earned cash.
My 26gal bow front tank has live sand and 20lbs of live rocks. Once the tank was cycled, which took about one week. I'm proud of myself in achieving this because the local fish store guys were impressed and said most people take about 1 month. I believe it was partly because my house has two filters for our tap water.
I added two clown fish about a week ago. They seem to be healthy. At first they would stay in one corner of the tank. I suppose it is because they are not used to the new environment. After a few days, they ventured from one corner to the other corner. As of today, they are now exploring the tank.
I just bought a 14watt x 2 Solarmax HE T5 to anticipate me adding coral reefs. My next goal is to add coral reefs, a blue tang and a yellow tang.
