Bought my second tank last night :)

Aquaone Reefsys 326

Current equipment installed:

-Deltec Skimmer
-Aquamedic DC runner 3.1 return pump

filling tank as we speak for water test. If all good thinking of shutting down my minireef 160 and possibly selling or reusing (undecided yet).

Any recommendations on what rock to go? I want to have a lot of caves on this one but not sure on style.

Started the rock scape today. Just under half done. A bit messy atm as it’s not complete but what’s the thoughts on the hardscape? Heading in the right direction? I wanted a cove section and the next lot will hopefully be a bit more open cave style joining on . First time breaking and reassembling the rock tho lol. Definitely looks better in person and think it’s alright for my first go lol

Filled with water, salt mixed, sump set up. Running skimmer and socks for the day then turn them off / take out and start the fishless cycle tonight.

Using the Dr Tims fishless cycle method. Who else has done this method? Any extra tips?
