[Hello DFWMAS, I am so glad that I have found this site. I am starting a reef tank and I have enjoyed reading all of the available information. I have a 42 HEX that so far it is sitting there staring at me, wanting me to hurry up.
I am taking this very slowly. So far I have a 3 to 4 inch sand/crushed coral base. I mixed the sand to coral at 2 lbs sand to 1 lb coral. I have three power heads moving water around and today I bought some base rock to start my aquascaping.
For lighting I am going to go with power compacts but I have to first constuct a hood.
I would like to thank everyone on this site for the information provided and hope to send pictures as I progress.]
