This was actually setup a lil' under three weeks ago (3/11/11). Here is what I "had":
"Deco Art Aqua Vase" Red Sea Candy Combo XL; it came with the nano power filter by Red Sea and a 7W (7200K) clamp on.
I added 1/2lb of live sand and 9 pieces of Live rubble rocks equaling to about 1/2lb (I'm guessing..LOL), I used the water, live sand and LR that was given to me by the shop owner to get me setup (I made it about 2hrs before new shipments came in..he was all too happy to get rid it...to me!) My gravity started at 1.028 and I adjusted it to 1.025; it remained steady for about six days then it shot down to 1.016...so I added a cup and a 1/2 of ready made sea water(SG 1.024) which remained so for another 7days.I also added a Boxer crab and two days after i began to see tiny little white flea-like critters swimming and crawling about the tank walls and rock.
During this time I was also working on a 2.5 gal into a DIY in-tank sump/refugium.
