Hi I am setting up a frag tank for zoas and shrooms. I have a lot of rubble and very small rocks, bio balls both big and small. Someone left a post and went bare bottom! Dont I need the rubble for my beneficial bacteria? How will I be able to vacuum and keep clean? Should I add one or two fish and what kind?
Also CUC recommendations'. I want to move my Figi Blue devil damsel over but I know he wont provide much if any benefit at all other then helping to cycle quicker! I honestly am in a hurry because I have to many corals frags coming in and need to make room but I was thinking of maybe a molly and maybe a 6line or lawnmower blenny.
Stupid I know(regarding frags) but my order got all screwed up and wrong corals were sent so I am getting the right ones plus i have had an order held for months! Long story!
I always waited 4 months to turn lights on and never had an ugly stage. How long should I wait and turn lights on and transfer corals? BRS use to say wait 4 months but now they dont say that but they say to start lights very low on acclimation mode.
Please let me know how many of you use rubble or what you use in your frag tank set up. I just finished curing and buying all of the rubble ect and now rethinking it and considering only using where shrooms will be and going bare bottom. Probably a lot easier to keep clean!
Sorry so many questions! I appreciate any advice and tips I may have not mentioned!
