So, I promised my husband that this new tank was going to be low maintenance. I told him it would be a VERY easy set up that I would make sure didnt fail. I can not have an algae problems or any other big headache issues and I CAN NOT be forced to work on it while hes home.
So obviously I have changed my mind lol.
Now is the perfect time to start buying things to prepare for a SPS dominate tank.
I was planning on setting up a continuous auto feeder for my fish like you see here.... http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/saltwater-aquariums/automatic-continuous-feeder-20896/
But my question is, should I buy the dosing pumps/kalk/2part from BRS or should I set up the auto feeder first? This all has to be done low key so there is no "Oh I'm just gonna run out and spend 500$ on this pump or light" and it all has to be very much the whole, "Oh, I want to add this coral now, and I can because its all running smoothly with no need to buy more stuff".
I will have to work with the lighting I have. One tank is 2 T12 VHO's and one is 4 T5s. Of course the 4 T5s are on my octopus tank that I was thinking of turning into a sea horse tank for a while.
Bottom line is, what should I get into first? It will be months before I can add any kind of SPS so I have plenty of time. I just need to start preparing.
