This thread will chronicle my first ever saltwater aqurium I have ever owned. I decided to purchase the Elos system due to the LED lighting, design and look of the tank, all the components do not need to be changed, has a sump and the Elos reputation!!
As of 8/23 I added 15lbs of live Fiji rock and 20lbs of live sand. Water at that time was 1.026 and temperature was 80.7.
Today I can see some stuff growing on my ROCK!! YEA!! This hobby is going to be so fun!!
On wednesday of this week I will perform my first water change at which point I will change 4 gallons and begin to dose my magnesium and calcuim that I purchased as well.
Here are pictures of the aquascape:

My plans for the tank are as follows:
2 Picasso Clowns (ordered already)
1 Royal Gramma
1 yellow watchman goby
or
1 Banggai Cardinal
Clam
1 Anemone - not sure which one
SPS - not sure which ones
LPS - not sure which ones
CUC - 1 cleaner shrimp, crabs and snails
That's all for now.
If any one has any good advice, questions or concerns please feel free to post!!
