My girlfriends mom has decided to allow me to make a saltwater tank. she is buying a brand new tank and stand but i have to pay for everything else. Now i had a couple questions.
1 - When cycling the tank for a month i do it with live rock but do i need to do it with the filter and powerhead?
2 - Do i need to add anything to the water that i would not add to a freshwater tank while cycling?
3 - What is all the equiptment that i am going to need. what type of filter things like that.
I am going to be talking to some buddys and me LFS to find what i need but i just wanted to see what you guys had to say.
Thanks Everyone!
