HI again all, well my Tank has sat running for a week all conditions appear stable so I have just added some live rock only 7 kg at this stage as that is all I can afford, $16 Aus a Kg, will one week be enough time before I try my first fish , just a very cheap Damsil, Tank is a 3ft, I think it is around 150 litres, around 35 gallons, also when I bought my rock I was told to keep an eye out for some type of crustacean that some times lives in the rock and my kill fish, does any know what I should be looking for

you should be looking out for mantis shrimp, do a google image search on them they dont always attack fish but there is a risk. the big 9 inch mantis can crack glass. so its probly not a great idea to let em grow. to get them out you can just cut the "funnel" off a coke bottle and invert it and put the mantis's favorite food in there, usually your most expensive fish ^^
