i'm going to put in live rock soon, i'm going to do a few cycles in the next couple weeks to get the tap water that i've been using out. then depending on my budget will determine how much live rock i can put in.

Nice tank Eric. I like the fish you chose - (except the dominoe!) I can't seem to get rid of mine. You are right, though- he blew up in size real quick, and when I put the tongs in the tank, he tries to attack them! Keep the pics coming! We like pictures! And WELCOME to REEFBUILDERS!!

How often do you add top off water?

Be careful when you add the Live rock to your tank... Might cause a cycle or a mini cycle. Nice FO tank though

I think at least a year. When I bought it I think it was a little smaller than what it is now. How long does yours last?

how big are the bannerfish that you buy? usually when i buy fish that are bigger than damsels, i buy the ones that have a pretty good size to them so i know they should last a while.
