our new tank is second hand and came with a sailfin, potters angel,maroon clown, normal nemo and couple of crabs and shrimp!

with a SW set up there is one basic fundamental rule that we ALL should follow
When in doubt... wait it out. This means take it slow and let the tank "develop" and don't rush it. Time is your friend


Ask me about how to increase your REEF budget without going without FOOD!!
