Craig Posted September 23, 2018 Author Share Posted September 23, 2018 Have 30g of water so far. Should be enough to fill with the sand and rock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted September 23, 2018 Author Share Posted September 23, 2018 What wavemaker should I get ? I’m most likely going jebao or icecap. Do I get normal wavemaker or a gyre ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muttley000 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 I got one of the 1000 size gyres on my 40b and I love it. It has been running for a few months so I can't talk to longevity. I just can't bring myself to buy any more Jebao, I know they don't last and am hoping the icecap will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve owned a lot of jebao in the tanks before the 80 never had issues. Kept them clean though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so at all, I'm ruunning it at 70% on my 40b and if I had more sps in there I would crank it up more Edited September 23, 2018 by Muttley000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macro does not do well with ammonia and needs levels of nitrate and phosphate. It will most likely die if you add it now This is the subject of great debates once in a while but I agree with not putting it in until after the cycle. I'd get your first fish or two in it also so you are making a regular supply of fertilizer. Speaking of which what are you putting in this tank?
