I have been interested in starting a saltwater tank for years. Well this was the year for it I guess. I started with a 40 breeder and have had it up and running now for about 2 and a half months and it seems to be doing well. The tank has cycled once and seems to be pretty stable. I have about 3 pounds per gallon of live rock and a somewhat sallow sand bed.....something I'm going to work on changing. I have a fairly large clean up crew working and a few fish. I have added some corals but nothing to crazy yet. I have been reading that a tank may cycle a few times in the first few months. I have about 325w of led power on top of the tank that I just added and a protien skimmer I just added. I have been running a hob filter but from what I'm reading I will be removing it tonight for good. I seem to be drawn to LPS there are so many things to choose from with this hobby its crazy. I have questions and I'm learning a ton. Thanks to all of you expert reefers that share your info. Its a huge help to us newbs who are clueless when we start lol.
