Salinity is 1.024 in the tank right now. I see what you mean @Colin_T - next time I will wait 24 hours before adding new water.

Is it true you should wait 6 months before adding live coral to a new saltwater tank? (I’m just getting ideas in my head)

Oh and its too late to tell you now but its easyer to aquascape the live rock when there is no water in the tank.

I waited about a month before adding soft corals you want to wait a little longer before you add lps corals.

Hmm, ok. I’ll probably wait until after I get stock.

Speaking of stock... here’s what I’m thinking:

• 2x Clownfish
• 1x Watchman Goby
• 2x Scarlet Banded Shrimp
• Some sort of crab (any suggestions?)

Does that sound good?

Sounds good to me. I tend to stay away from crabs other than hermits since some species have a reputation of eating corals such as emerald crabs.

I have always dreamed of keeping a saltwater tank as well! Once I get livestock, it will truly be a dream come true.
