hey all,
this is the first time i have posted in the marine section and after weeks of reading mainly on here and in pf i have loads of questions!! sorry!! lol i have kept tropical for a coouple of years now n i have seen a nano reef tank i am planning on buying if i can get a grip on it all...so here goes!
1) is the more lr u have better??
2)do you filter with the same type of media as freshwater?? and if so is it the same idea as freshwater with the fish poo building up and creating the right bacteria for the cycle?
3) when preparing water for a water change does the water have to be up to tempature before you add the salt? how often are water changes needed? wat percentage of water has to be changed??
4) How much salt is needed to a litre or gallon of water?? and do you have to use RO water??
5) What types of lighting is needed for the LR and fish?? wat does this lighting do??
6) how long does it take to cycle a new marine tank??
7) what is SG?
Last but not least...lol
8) what is Cured rock??
i know there are a load of questions there and i prob wont get any replys lol but its worth a try! if anyone can help me with this it would be great and i promise to post a diary ect when im up and running!!
thanks again
