i know i know i shouldnt start my first SW tank with a 10g. but im basically making a nice quarentine tank for when i get a 75 or 90g with an overflow.

the lights im gonna order are 40w (2x20w CF one actinic light and one 10k) with LED night lights.

a fission nano skimmer (NEED advice on this one i like it cus its 30 bucks)

50w heater, thermometer/hydrometer

id be getting about 15 or 16 pounds of live rock eventually.


what im gonna end up doing is getting a couple of snails or whatever to throw in whilst its cycling and even after its done cycling i think it would be a while before i put anything in there.

im new to SW but i have a couple books and pretty much understand the whole thing EXCEPT mixing the salt. there directions right on the box?
how do you adjust salinity?

thanks in advance
