So here's a few photos of it. We checked the salinity this morning and it was perfect, so we bought our liverock today. 40 total pounds-- 25 of which was true liverock, the rest base rock. I am going to add another filter to the upper right corner for better flow there. The filter is rated for 30 gallons. I have the media in there but I think I might take that out-- from what I've read it will just generate nitrates that aren't needed, and the liverock will take care of all the filtration.
There's already some tentacles poking out of a crevice.
See the red arrows? I'm thinking serpent star, maybe two.
Got some nice aquacultured liverock that had a lot of stuff on it already. Not sure what the stuff is... corals of some type and some sort of macroalgae.
You can see one of our turbo snails in this pic.
Now the waiting begins. I figure 2-4 weeks before we can add anything else that's alive. We'll probably start with some inverts.
