The reef tank is now a good seven weeks along. It went through a pretty massive cycle from all the dead sponge and assorted crud that came along with the Reef Bones. After 5 weeks a 50% water change helped clear things up a bit. If I were to do it over again I would strongly consider using fully cycled live rock. Let’s just say that curing mostly dead live rock is a nasty experience.

Now that the tank is fully cycled we’ve started adding livestock. So far we’ve added a cleanup crew, a goby, a cleaner shrimp and a couple of corals. Complete tank specs can be found here.
