Rick Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Agreed, thats why we'll set up on the 20th and stock the third of the next month. Jan. 3. Is that enough time to cycle? or would anyone suggest waiting longer? Please everyone I'm new to the hobby, so all advice is welcome. Yes, I would suggest a minimum of 6 to 8 weeks.

Emerald525 Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Kimberlee is there a way you could change the date to the weekend instead. I know you would get more volunteers that way. I would love to help out but I work all day Monday but would be available the 18th or 19th. We all love tank projects and builds.(clap) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the mean time it would be helpful if others who would like to be there could give me an idea of the best day for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have about 70 lbs. of used sand however it's a mixture that's part play sand, part oyster shells, and part aragonite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerald525 Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 We have lights just need 50 dollars! I found a smoking deal on T5 lights that will work well for this tank!(clap) With the percentage of money I sold for the corals you just need 50 dollars more to pay for these! It's perfect! It's a T5 from pacific coast. YOu should be able to do zoas, other softies, some lps, and a few sps like birdnest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr S Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Nice job Kim. Let me know about LR. I have some that was donated. Also when you are planning on putting live stuff in the tank. If you can wait, I can deliver over Christmas break. Winter holiday for those of you who want the politically correct alternative.

Emerald525 Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 I was going to donate some Live rock but they are kind of big pieces so if you have some smaller ones that may work better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr S Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Yep, already talked to her. Will bring them to you or her the next time I am in town. Probably the Friday after Thanksgiving or during Christmas break Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
