No one here steered you wrong. Read this [/URL]http://www.drtimsaquatics.com/resources/how-to-start[/URL] The shrimp you added has added ammonia to start the cycle. You will find out in this hobby there are many vetting opinions on different topics. This doesn't mean one of the other is wrong...

Jose, which hanging kit did you pick up? The one made by tek light or something different?

Awesome! Thanks again Dan, ill be In touch soon.

Nice! Have you had the light on it yet? Any "give" when weight is on it?

Thanks for the offer Dan. I will definitely be in touch. I was leaning towards steel because of cost and the fact that I plan on painting them to match everything else. My idea is basically and upside down "L" which I will bolt directly to the stand. Kind of like this but most likely...

Great idea Jose. I will do that next time I get a little extra time. This is part of the reason I left it at the shop. I can work on it right when I get off of work when I'm still in "work mode" not "need to go to sleep mode". Lol

I remember Edwin mentioning that. Hopefully ill do it justice...lol

Yup. 36"x18"x21". So an extra 4" added to a 40B

Sorry the pictures are attachments, I'm having a hard time posting pictures through tapatalk.

So it's been a very long time with absolutely no progress. I am happy to say that has changed. It's not much but at least it's progress. I went to help Edwin (ecambro) with some plumbing on his new tank, which is really coming together nicely, and he gave me the 57 rimless he had set up...

Looks great man. Where are you getting the NSW?

Brigantine. Right next to atlantic city.

Lol...wasn't my intention either. Sorry sobo. Welcome to the club. Looking forward to seeing more pictures.

I'm from brigantine

Chalices and LEDs can be a little tough sometimes. I have heard this a few times with led users. I would suggest getting them out of direct light for the time being until the my start to recover. Then slowly move them into a low light spot in the tank. What kind of flow are they getting?

Have you guys updated tapatalk lately? I recently did and some of my issues went away. The new format takes some getting used to but it's not too bad.

Whenever I dose anything I put it either into the overflow box or into the sump. I think the additive you are talking about is bacteria so I wouldn't be concerned about putting it directly into the tank. If you dose 2 part I would make sure it goes either in the sump or over flow. Let us...

I wouldn't be worried about a frozen shrimp. Many of the commercially made frozen food we use in our tanks contain preservatives. 1 should be plenty for your tank. I would leave the filter on. Has the tank cleared up for you?

Welcome to the club. Gorgeous tank. Looking forward to seeing more

I agree with using the shrimp. No need to put a fish through any undue stress or even worth death when there are other methods.
