Should be fine. [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] It's a new tank right?

Either you buy one form Inland Aquatics or you swap some sand with other reefers and don't add anything predatory in your tank for enough time to let the critters multiply and grow in numbers sufficient to keep the population alive. You'll need to find people around here who have those critters in their systems and see if you can get a cupfull or so. The larger number of different tanks the better chance you have of getting a wider variety of critters. You will get some neat stuff on LR. especially if you can get uncured and use the LR to cure your tank. [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
