Day 2 - Saturday June 30
After one night of circulation and skimming, I adjust a bit temperature and salinity. The sand storm is over. Some microbubbles, not too much. Water seems to be a bit milky, as if a bacteria bloom was happenning already. Seems a bit early, but maybe the live sand was actually a bit more alive than I imagined.
FedEx shows up a bit later with 45 lbs of Premium Fiji Live Rock from LiveAquaria.com. I just place them "as is" a bit at random in the tank since the plan is to aquascape tomorrow. The rocks seem to be properly cured.
Girlfriend and I have many plans for the day and we leave the tank alone... It is 11am.
Back at around 5pm... Water is now crystal clear. Wow!
The tank is filtered with all the default equipment but is not lit yet. I will put the lid into place when done with aquascaping.
I am quite happy to have purchased aquarium gloves. Manipulating the rocks was really easy.
