Next was the sand. I bought 50lbs of aragonite sand.



and then some live rock:



then some more live rock:



Just spent a couple hours trying to put the rocks together. It seems really cramped so I threw a couple pieces of rock in the sump along with the gorilla crab I found. Not exactly happy with this but it will do for now.
I am not using any rods or anything to keep the rocks together. I have aquarium epoxy...should I use that? Any creative thoughts on how to aqua scape this?


I left the liverock in the tank for about 3 weeks and, since the rocks were already cured, I dont think I got a cycle. All the organisms and inverts from the rock have been living ever since and my ammonia & nitrite = 0. My temperature is around 81-82 when the lights are on and drops to about 78-79 when lights are off. Is this okay? I am in the process of installing more fans.
