Default Newb and his 38g Ocean

Nothing superb, mainly pics of me starting up. I'll most a few just to give a story line, however all my other pics are located here.

Quick specs: 38g, 36x12x20, 36" 1x96W 50/50, 200w ebojager, 802 powerhead w/ filter. 12lbs figi LR, 30lbs sugarsand. started dec 27th, restarted jan 2nd.

day 1 - 12lbs of LR. 30lbs of sugar sand. filled up the tank with some water and salt. cloudy? yes.


day 2 : dec 28th - filled all the way up. still cloudy


jan 2 - couldn't take the cloudyness, wasn't getting any better. got a filter for the powerhead, removed all the water, and sand. gave the sand a rinse, and started again. (pic from jan 3rd) difference made from the filter, and rinsing the sand.


first diy - wanted to make something while I wait for my cycle. made a cover for my tank at work. more pics


jan 5 - tank as of today. got one little shrimp in there for the cycle (cocktail stuff).


And thats it for now. Again check out my gallery for more pics.
