Thumbs up

5 gal nano started


Well, Friday I got the 5gal loaded with sand and saltwater. (50/50 mix..50 fresh saltwater, 50 saltwater out of my 75 gal.). Let that sit all weekend, and today I added 7 lbs of LR. Mixture of fiji and tonga. I already saw some gamerus shrimp walking around. So..slowly but surely the tank is coming around.

Cool, always happy to see another tank get under way.
Why the 50/50 mix?

I chose to go with the 50/50 mix so that the water would already have some of the bacterias needed. Kind of a quick start if you will.
