Here's the 12G NC DX...Starting out...

It finally arrived, its finally here...My 12G NC DX...Here's a picture or two to show you what I got to start off, I just bought my RO/DI water from the local LFS (15 gallons) and ordered a 50-watt heater, maxijet 900, test kit, nano cube fiji pre-cured live rock, aragalive fiji pink ultra fine sand, and some glass wipes. What other tips do you suggest for starting off.

Just curious where you purchased your nano cube? I was trying to find the best price on one.

I purchased it at the beginning of the month for 170.00 it was on sale, but the orignal price was 190.00, it included a filter, pump, surface skimmer, mag-lite (to clean glass of algae), ballast, and 2-24 watt lights. Mine was the deluxe, I think the other one was 170.00 orignal price, and 150.00 on sale.
