let me know what you think:wink:

Is it going to be FOWLR or a reef?

leaning towards reef, got some learning to do though

i hear ya. you can't get enough research can you? Looks good so far. What kind of fish do you have.

I have 1 yellow tang 5 yellow tailed damsels a starfish and 2 crabs:biggrin:

it's 90g right?

:mrgreen: yes im quite proud of it

i'd be proud of it if i had it, but i don't :(

your 13 right? dont be in a big hurry to get old enough to afford it one day youll wake up and have no choice but to go to work, I would love to win the lottery that way i would never have to go to work in order to pay the bills enjoy being young trust me!:wink:

yep i am, oh i don't want to grow up i just want to have money, or a job... 3 times a week. :)

any ideas on what I should do next?? bump

Check parameters and put the pictures on photobucket and take them from there:)

Your link isn't working...

he had taken them from his computer and posted them with canreef so he reached his limit of pictures and had to delete some, so the pictures that he deleted arn't showing. Like the one here and the one on my thread. :)

pic is reposted bump

I dont see any pics?

i can see it know. that's beter.

bump? does anybody else have any ideas on what i should do next with my tank?

Well I still dont see any pic. Just a red "X".

Get some kinda a dark background makes all the colors pop better

What do you have in terms of a clean up crew? I hope its not just the 1 starfish and the 2 crabs?

Ya, paint the back of it black or blue. Will make it look a lot better. You can paint it while it's setup provided you can reach back there. :D

I think at 3 weeks you should add nothing else to the tank for at least a month while you wait for the tank to settle in. The age of the tank being 3 weeks is that including the cycle, or was it cycled, plus 3 weeks? If it's 3 weeks including the cycle, then I bet your cycle isn't even complete yet, in which case I'd be watching your Ammonia, Nitrite, and Nirate VERY closely to make sure you don't lose your inhabitants. In the future, don't put a starfish in so early...you may lose him to starvation. They shouldn't be added until the tank is at least 6 months old. You're already moving too fast, slow down, take a deep breath, and enjoy watching it develop. Remember, nothing good ever happens fast in a saltwater tank.

What kind of lighting do you have? Can you list your parameters? List everything you can test for, which I hope includes at least temperature, salinity, pH, Ammonia, Nitrite, and Nitrate.

this is my tank at 5 weeks old ive since added a power compact light and DIY sump ive also added a blue backround and covered the stand for esthetics
