I have got the tank settled now, so I am now monitoring the Calc levels from last night, for a week, to get an idea as to how much Foundation stuff to start with.
I shall go with the Red Sea Care Program, and I already have my stocks of Foundation and Colours A,B,C & D, so with NOPOX I will be a fully paid up member of the Red Sea Club !
Yesterday I added some frags, a GSP, a Hammer and a Frogspawn. Surprisingly, with all the upheaval in the tank, with Meds added etc, the RTBA and a small SPS (red) frag I have are still living ! Other things that have thrived are the Florida Ricordia (loads of the stuff) and a Leather Mushroom. I once had a really nice Zoa colony, but I found the rock that it lived on and found about four Polyps hanging on for dear life.
I shall add the UV-C in the next week once I've decided on a pump for it, and where I will place it. I never did get an answer back from JBL as to whether it is important to have the Input on the top, or bottom. I also need to order some plastic hose clamps for the UV-C. I do get nervous about having water being pumped outside of the sump.
Onwards and upwards!
