So I did just start running a Jebo 338 - but then changed my mind and bought a secondhand JBJ Delux 24 with skimmer, seio530 prop, LR etc.
Tank has been running for 7 months.So I get to skip the tank maturing process . I have however inherted something else with the tank (don't be moaning at me now), it came with a nennie.
I have a healthy respect for the advice given by all you reefers - frankly I am terrified of the emoticons you will send my way if I do her any harm. I will say this, she looks healthy (compared to numerous googled photoies) and is happy enough to eat. I will post some pic's of her on the weekend.
Now I have some questions: Is the tank big enough for her? Currently she is about 8cm across - but how big will she get? Which of course you are going to ask "what is she?" I dunno, she is a rose colour, no visible "bubble tips". Condy maybe?
Obviously I want to try and let her settle down after the move and keep the tank as stable as possible, but the aquascaping is diabolical. I thought if I gave her 4 weeks to settle down and tried not to fiddle - would I then be able to get in there are scoot stuff around? What about adding more LR? Can I, will that still create mini-cycles in a mature tank? Should I be considering adding cured rock instead?
Some people believe that nennies are better off if they have clowns to care for them, should I be looking for a pair for her? At present there are no fish in the tank - only 2 hermies. I asked the former owners why they weren't putting her into their upgrade tank, they said that the clowns were stealing the food out her mouth.
Rest assured I am a lover of all things living - if I think that she is even remotely unhappy I will ensure she goes to a "happier" home, but if she is happy I would like to try and keep her - with a little help from all of you.
