Re: Let's watch my new tank grow

Hello Jon

VEry nice tank you've built. I really like the aquascaping. Do keep an eye on the nitrAtes and keep them at 10ppm or less. Perform water changes as needed to keep them down.
Also keep in mind that the recommended rate of stocking marine fish is 1" of adult fish per 3-5 gal of water. I see someone has already mentioned the tang requirements so I won't Remember that the more bioload you have, the more water changes you'll be doing to keep the water quality high.
Your salinity seems a bit low at 1.022. Since you have inverts, you may want to slowly increase it up to 1.024-26.
Keep up the good work!
