150 finally set up

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
It was a reef tank my girlfriend got it for me for my birthday. Im gonna move my lima and sen poly out of my90 and i got two oscars about 4-5 inches going in there. The 90 is gonna get some severums and clown loaches
And maybe some salvini. Do you guys think i should keep the reef light?

I would let it run for a few days at least. Don't put in all he fish in at once, I did that with my 120 and the fish got really stressed and the water was cloudy. Thankfuly the ammonia didn't go over .50 ppt. All the fish were fine but they were stressed.
 
If it wasnt for aggression in the other tanks and needing to move some fish i wouldnt be rushing it. The tank is supper clear this morning which is surprising since i used black diamond sand for media. I never realized green severuns were so mean!!

You need to put something in it or your seeded bacteria will die with no food to feed them. I've done this more times than I can count by moving fish into the new tank with some seeded filter and never had an issue. The longer you go with nothing in it, the more likely you will loose the beneficial bacteria with nothing for them to eat.
