Ok so my new set-up is a 130litre tank which I intend to have as a reef tank.
I purchased 20kgs of Fiji live sand and 15kgs of 2 year cured live rock and all water pre mixed.
I am running a beta 1600uv external canister filter with built in skimmer 2 x power heads.
And lighting is white/blue mixable led in total 150w.
I have been cycling for 3 weeks with lights out.
No algea growth and current parameters as follows:
Alkiliity 10
Ammonia 0
Phosphate 0
Calcium 380
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 10ppm
Salinity 35
Temp 79
My question please is how am I doing?
