New Hobby Hi Yes its my first salt water tank. I hade a fresh water tank for 5 years and took the plung in 2007 with a SWT. One of resons you dont see alot of cretters in my tank, well i was out of work for 2 years laid off! i just got back to work about a year ago. I have been driving Semi Trucks for 19 years. I would like to start out with softies,mushrooms see how thangs go. My biggest promblem was when i got into sw was useing tap water!!! i lost alot of nice fish and coral. I use a R/O DI now! Salt E.S.V. E-IONIC I love this salt because it never leavs Calcium build up on my pumps and when i mix up a new batch of SW its ready to go in 10 min! i have used this salt for over a year with no promblems cretters are very happy. And your right its a very slow going hobby. and for all you new reefers out there take it from me dont even think about getting into this hobby with out checking your tap water first! if you guys dont now how to test your water its called a TDS meter they only cost around $20 bucks. my tap was 490 ppm.In this hobby the water you put an a REEF/FOWLR should read 000. I buy a all my stuff from www.marinedepot.com, Filter Guys and BRS short for Bulk Reef Supply. THX for the advice fishlover i would like to keep intouch if thats ok with you. Fragger......
