I think for the tank size you have, an ATO is a must! Or you would have to run around with maybe 5-7gallon bucket filled with rodi to top off the tank everyday :P

My favorite piece of equipment also, I have a Tunze and would never have another tank without an ATO.

Things are looking great. Also great to hear you're doing your research into everything. I look forward to the rest of this build

hey thanks guys !
nice to see people posting in your thread .. let you know someone is reading

well finally got the tank full with rodi .. its running with my rock in there now ,
I am currently trying to add my salt .

But it seems to just be sitting on the bottom . I never anticipated this . This is the first time i have had to add salt into a tank . Especially this much at one time .

Will it eventually dissolve on it own ? or do i need to get in there and stir up the bottom .

i figure tomorrow i will add a raw shrimp and get this started

Use a powerhead to mix the salt.

i have both power heads runnning plus the return pump and skimmer . But when you dump a cup in some sink straight down .

I have my rock in there , so i was thinking i dont want to get ahead of myself and end up with salt hiding under the rocks or something

i dont know lol
guess it was a simple oversight . should have mixed it all in a 5 gallon buckets and poured it in that way
