Oh, I think you guys are misunderstanding me. My tank has been running for about 2 months now. I was just going back in time and explaining my build. I waited over a month to add any livestock. Haha

So what was the ammonia source in those two months? How long ago did you add the inhabitants? I still feel you are setting up for a crash.

I'm not trying to be mean or bully you but genuinely want to ensure you succeed, that build looks amazing.

Ok, sorry for the confusion, I didn't mean for this to be confusing. I will give you a full break down of what I did from day 1. I know you are trying to help. I really appreciate it.

Day 1: Added RO/DI Water

Day 2: Added Salt Mix and Dry Rock

Day 3: Added Live Sand (Says on the bag there is an Instant Cycle (Probably not true so that is why I waited a month to add a few snails and crabs. Also says on the bags of live sand that it uses ammonia cycling.)

Day 10: Added a few handfuls of mature sand from a local's tank. Very good quality. Also added some chaeto

Day 31: Added a couple hermits and Nassarius snails

Day 45: Added Green Pocillopora Frag and some Zoas. Doing great by the way.

Day 55: Added 5 other frags of SPS

Day 58: Today

This is pretty much it.
