Ive already started the cycling process, but im starting this thread about a week and a half after initial setup.
I'm running a Fluval Spec V. Currently, the only mod to the tank is a piece of duct tape on the inside filter panel that is blocking a small slit that goes through to the main tank. This forces all the water to overflow thru the stock sponge holding a carbon bag and a filter media (ceramics) bag.
I have a 25w submersible heater in the outflow chamber. I've added a floating suction thermometer and a small suction cup soap dish to hold cheato.
I'm using coarse crushed coral for substrate and have a 7lb live rock.
After a week i added the yellow tail damsel.
