  1. Since its only in its 2nd day, I think you should just leave it to run during its cycle.

    Don worry about parameters until the cycle is complete.

    When you do the 50-80% water change, all will be fine.

    Meanwhile, read up as much as you can from the Forum, it has lots of useful info.

  2. Rowa ran out once, so I tried it, not bad.

    Absorb phosphate slowly, since SPS cannot take sudden changes, steady drop in phosphate is better for them.

    Rowa is good, but I prefer slower absorbing and cheaper ones like purephos so I can change more often.

  3. Thanks Kominato & astroboy ....

    Read oreadi. My wife bought a book from Kino*** (some Japanese bookshop) as additional bed time story

    Maybe go 4 or 5 feets tank.

    Is there any reliable and cheap tankmaker?

    One stop shopping solution also can ... save all the trouble since my car is in the shop and I hate public transport

    what is marine language?

  4. Hi guys,

    Nelson here, new to the hobby.

    Been bugged to start a marine tank by my wife for a while, had to relent or feel the wrath of a woman .... :pinch:

    Anyways, been reading up a bit, but still a little unsure how to go about. My idea is to get it right first time round, so here goes:

    1) How big a tank should I get?

    2) Should I go fish-only first to 'break-in' the tank before going corals?

    3) How important is lightings?

    4) How much money do I have to spend on a decent setup?

    :thanks:
